2008 All Eyes On Me Achievement Awards

About AEOM

Like Nice & Smooth, this is how we bridge the old with the new.

In 2008, the event formerly known as the Texas Holy Hip Hop Achievement Awards will be billed as the All Eyes On Me Achievement Awards. And instead of a strictly state-wide scope, this year’s festivities will now encompass and honor artists from all across the United States who have and continue to blaze trails within inspirational hip hop culture.

The premiere showcase of the new All Eyes On Me Achievement Awards, to be held at Copperfield Church in northwest Houston on June 20 and 21, will recognize and reward the pioneers of Christian rap music.

As in year’s past, the event will provide the holy hip hop community with perhaps its most well-planned and highly professional stage show. The weekend affair also includes, a kickoff fellowship concert the preceding Friday night, a star-studded media red carpet, artist development workshops, and a celebratory after-party.

The two most recent awards shows included appearances and honors by the likes of George Clinton, MTV’s Sway, Special Ed, and the Sugarhill Gang.

The awards show began in the summer of 2002 by honoring the pioneers of the industry within its hometown. After three additional years of only Houston nominees, the show went statewide in 2006 and 2007 by honoring individuals from across Texas.

The event recognizes artists, retailers, pastors, media representatives, DJ’s, graphic designers, vendors and others for their outstanding achievements and contributions in the inspirational hip hop music industry. Awards are given in over 30 different categories to the genre’s upper echelon of power movers and shakers.

In celebration of this national launch, guests are invited to set sail on Carnival’s fun ship, the Ecstasy from Galveston, TX. This will be a 5 day cruise that will be stopping in Progreso, Yucatan and Cozumel, Mexico, departing June 23 at 4pm and returning June 28 at 8am.

More details on specific nominees, presenters, and performers will be announced over the next few months. Stay tuned to www.alleyesonmeawards.com for the latest.
