THE MILLION DJ MARCH—– “IF NOT ONE, THEN NOTHING”
Manhattan, NY – Djs from all over the world will gather together for the very 1st Million Dj March. The “Million DJ March is a movement implemented by
organizer A. Shaw of Shaw Original Clothing. The march is expected to take place in late 2008 in a yet to be determined location. Disc jockeys will gather from all over the country to discuss the current state of the Dj and their TRUE importance to the music and entertainment industries.The objective is bringing the essence and importance of the Dj back to the forefront of everything regarding music and entertainment. “Cooperation from
Labels, artists, DJs and radio personnel is projected to be very moving,” states
Wiz Hoffa, Founder of Noize Mob DJs.A passionate and devoted designer A. Shaw, long time supporter of the
DJ, felt compelled to address her concern for DJ’s once she began to
notice that they weren’t often adequately compensated for their hard
work and dedication in working with artists. “DJ’s do not get
recognized for the work that they do…Labels and Major Businesses who
reap the rewards of default publicity need to pay more attention and
give more recognition to DJ’s for the hard work that they are
consistently doing,” said A. Shaw.The March, which has already been approved by civil rights activist
Louis Farrakhan and Ishmael Muhammad, has already caught the attention of several dj organizations. The Million Dj March will strive to gain recognition, appreciation, love, and show that the Dj are truly the backbone of the music and entertainment fields. Also the event will provide the dj’s with protection under new union laws. This movement will help set the parameters for DJ’s while protecting the incomes of already established DJ’s and providing goals for uprising DJ’s.The already notable speech from founder A. Shaw begins…”DJs are the middlemen in the
success of the industry. They are the filters that help the economy
of many markets. DJs are the least compensated in the industry element.
No matter how many write ups DJs obtain, no matter how many tours they
grace, they seem to stay on the same level. It seems that the DJs are
a culture of sorts that is segregated by parts of the industry.
I am calling on the industry to show support of an event to Unify DJs
and create future economic safety for these people. The Million DJ
March will be the conclusion to a long road of requests from many markets to
aid in our mission of security.” – A. Shaw
