Press Release Body = MEMPHIS, TN - January 30, 2007 - MemphisRap.com\'s website was
recently awarded the \"Web Site of the Year\" award by the Southern Entertainment
Awards (SEA) on January 28, 2007, having been nominated and voted on by fans and
industry people across the South and across the globe. The Southern Entertainment
Awards has been acknowledging outstanding people in the industry for the past four
years focusing on all industries that contribute to the growth of the music and
entertainment industries in the South.

The (MemphisRap.com) founders and representatives who contributed to the creation of
the site are all to be congratulated, with special recognition going to the
representatives who keep their feet firm and connected with those who play a role in
the Industry and in the streets.

In response to receiving the award, M Town Luv of MemphisRap.com provided the
following:

\"I am glad we have been awarded this prestigious award and I was even more glad to
see the Industry that\'s representing the South come together at the award show. We
are based in Memphis which I feel is the \'hub of the South\' and we plan to make good
of this honor by representing the South to the fullest. Now what I would like to see
is more money being invested into the South so that we (the South) won\'t lose what
we\'ve gained and so we\'ll keep moving forward. Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, Texas,
Mississippi, Arkansas and all southern states: these are the people that traffic our
website seeking breaking new artists in the South as well as their favorite Southern
artists and we (these southern states) are all where Hip-Hop has been living for
sometime now and we\'re constantly birthing new talent. It\'s now up to the labels,
both major and independent, to break these artists, by marketing them in front of
our outstanding number of people interested in them. I feel if we come together and
market ourselves in the media forms that support us by putting us in front of these
millions of targeted consumers, we could make major moves, utilizing a now major
media market. East Coast invests in East Coast, West invests in West, the South
should invest in the South to keep sites like MemphisRap.com, Word of South, awards
like SEA, and magazines like Ozone and Streetmasters growing to further support the
whole marketing of the South to the world!\"
