May 30, 2006 11:12:01 (ET)
PHILADELPHIA, May 30, 2006 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- RMD Entertainment Group (Pink Sheets:RMDG) proudly announced earlier today that their participation in Real Hip Hop Network's national press conference yesterday was extremely well received by the national media and declared a huge success by all those in attendance. The MoTV/RHN channel was the talk of the afternoon after RMD CEO Giorgio Costonis spoke on the subject for well over 5 minutes. Mr. Costonis fielded questions about the mobile technology and spent ample time explaining the various revenue possibilities associated with the rebroadcast of RHN content.
Joined at The National Press Club by District of Columbia Councilman Marion Barry and twenty-five major media outlets, RMD and RHN also announced that they would be holding another press conference in the coming months to officially launch the new MoTV/RHN channel and announce several other monumental collaborative projects that are currently being developed and executed by RMD. The upcoming press conference will also be held at The National Press Club in Washington, DC.
RMD CEO Giorgio Costonis commented, "RHN and RMD are working diligently on becoming the most powerful multimedia conglomerate in the urban entertainment arena; we won't rest until that is the case. The collective RHN and RMD vision is here to stay while our primary objective at this point is to grow together symbiotically in an effort to grow and sustain the most efficient revenue mechanisms. It is imperative that everyone benefits from successful partnerships like this."
RHN President and CEO Atonn Muhammad added, "This union between RMD and RHN is historic based on the raw content and the technology we're implementing to deliver it globally. It's hard to imagine how massive this mechanism will be when the advertising opportunities fully mature. This is only the beginning; we won't rest until RMD and RHN are recognized as the premiere urban media one-two punch on Wall Street."

About Real Hip Hop Network
The Real Hip-Hop Network is the first 24 hour cable channel geared toward real hip hop lifestyle & culture. RHN's core focus is on the 18-34 year old Hip-Hop thrill seeker who embraces the excitement, adventure, and exhilaration embedded in the Hip-Hop lifestyle. RHN will deliver not only the hottest commercial acts on the scene today, but also give you the pure power found in the essence of underground hip hop, featuring the best of the grass roots and the international music scene. RHN brings a side of Hip Hop ignored by the other music channels celebrating the elements and principles that launched hip hop's golden era: DeeJaying, Emceeing, Breakdancing and Graffiti Art.
This was a time when Hip Hop artists were the urban street correspondents, delivering soul stirring and thought provoking commentary on the issues of the day. Hip Hop became an outlet for the pain, struggles, and dreams of those who were a part of its experience. This is what can be defined as real hip hop. Hip Hop has been proven to have massive commercial appeal. RHN provides the world with an engaging, fresh alternative. The Real Hip Hop Network takes everything the world loves about hip hop and challenges the negative images the media has made pervasive. RHN operates on a higher standard. We put the "Real" in Real Hip Hop and give the world a mature more gritty choice unavailable on any network before or since RHN. Hip Hop will be globally redefined the RHN Way.
