EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

360 Entertainment International LLC is a full service entertainment company located in Orlando, Florida. The company was developed by Don Fryson to bring a fresh new element to hip hop music and create a sub-genre in the more than $1 trillion plus world-wide hip hop market. The mission of 360 Entertainment International is to utilize the influence of positive hip hop music to entertain, educate and empower people around the world. The vision of 360 Entertainment International is to lend a helping hand and build dreams worldwide.

360 Entertainment International is currently launching “Rap Superstar 360” which is an International television and online production. 360EI is currently kicking off the first auditions in Orlando, then will travel to Atlanta, New York, Tokyo, London, Los Ange-les, Chicago, Houston and Toronto in search of Positive Hip Hop Emcee’s and Hip Hop Producer’s. This television and Internet production is the first of its kind and is bringing a new breed of hip hop artists to the market. We are featuring the best unsigned positive emcees and producers from around the world. 360 EI Online will begin broadcasting content of our auditions, talent showcases, celebrity appearances, local events and much more. 360 EI Records will support ”Rap Superstar 360” by working with contes-tants and winners to produce music under the umbrella of 360 Entertainment Interna-tional. We have also established the 360 ESAH Foundation to work hand in hand with grass roots organizations that provide opportunities in education, sports, the arts and healthcare to children globally.

360 Entertainment International seeks to provide an alternative to the constant barrage of Gansta-Rap music. Hip hop record sales have declined over the past few years due in part to the same repetitious sound. We believe the time is ripe to usher in a new sound that is fresh, clean, hot, and in-demand. In addition, we have garnered the support of parents, educators, celebrities, clergy, law enforcement, sports figures, politicians and many more who share the same sentiment of redirecting the future leaders, our youth. Collectively, it is our common goal to provide clean music for everyone to enjoy. In doing so, we will provide a platform for national and international sponsors, celebrity role-models, corporations, religious organizations, educational institutions and a host of others who share in our vision of entertaining, educating and empowering people around the world.

360 Entertainment International is the first of its kind to showcase the “clean” hip hop artist. We have also assembled a dynamic management team and board of directors who are promoting our mission to key industry leaders, celebrities, producers, musicians, educators, and all those who advocate change in lyrical content.
