True Emcee BBQ: UBO Magazine Hosts Networking Parties to Bring Together Sacramento's Unique Hip-Hop Scene, Just Bring Your Own Beer, Meat and Veggies
Sacramento, CA, June 23, 2007- UBO Magazine will be working hand-in-hand, literally with many of Sacramento, Roseville, Orangevale, Citrus Heights, Davis and surrounding area's hip-hop collectives, artists, labels and producers to create Sacramento Chamber of Commerce of Hip-Hop. The book will more than likely, according to UBO Magazine's Founder and Editor-In-Chief, Aaris A. Schroeder, be entitled, "Sacramento Chamber of Commerce: Hip-Hop Edition, Volume I."
The idea is simple. On a first come, first served basis, an emcee, hip-hop group or similar tasting music will contact UBO Magazine via e-mail or phone to arrange a BBQ that will take place at UBO Magazine home-headquarters. That person will then invite two-three other emcees or groups over to network, share ideas, exchange information and contacts in the local media that will assist other artists to improve their music through public relations, promotions, sound, graphic design and other services while everyone is relaxing to a nice summer night with BBQ and beer.
The only request that Schroeder asks is that you bring something to write on, your address/contact books, calendars, something to grill; be it meat or veggies and your own six-pack.
"There has been a lot of talk, recently about negative things being said about hip-hop, in general in Sacramento that needs to be squelched. I think the best way to do this is over a fire with networking to build us back up and beer to bring us together as a strong, unique collective," says Schroeder.
There is no actual date for the release of "Sacramento Chamber of Commerce: Hip-Hop Edition, Volume I," until UBO Magazine can meet and network with each emcee and group in Sacramento.
This idea will then prove to launch various other promotional ideas for the Sacramento hip-hop scene such as festivals, workshops, live music, weekly chamber meetings and other various networking and fun events centered around living a hip-hop lifestyle, according to Schroeder.

If you need assistance in creating a press kit to submit or would like more information about public relation information please contact Giselle Peck of UBO P.R. Services at gsllpeck@yahoo.com or (916) 501-6368.
We would like to thank Brian Fischer of http://www.midtowngrid.com who will be watching over the idea and helping to promote it through his own business.

You can find his postcards in almost all of the midtown businesses, offering up postcards in both Eat The Grid and Shop The Grid.

Life Sentence: UBO Magazine & 3rd Eye Collective Join Efforts to Improve and Enrich Sacramento, CA’s Spoken Word Scene
Sacramento, CA, July 3, 2007- UBO Magazine and 3rd Eye Collective have joined efforts to bring spoken word, poetry, slam-battles and even a little bit of comedy relief right smack dab in the middle of Downtown Sacramento. UBO Magazine and 3rd Eye Collective are in collaboration with Butch and Nellie’s, a unique coffee and tea spot known for their gelato and panini-grilled sandwiches located in the heart of downtown Sacramento on 19th and I. St.
3rd Eye Collective will be offering the best in local poets bringing driven spoken word and comedy to the local scene. UBO Magazine will be offering up promotions for this event, including press releases, artist and comedian biography postings, flyers and mail-outs. Butch & Nellie’s will offer their venue up to spoken word enthusiasts by serving great coffees and teas, sandwiches, pastries, unique desserts and their unique and fun-inspired attitudes towards art.
Butch & Nellie’s offers rotating urban-contemporary art by local artists – so each time you visit this hot commodity you will become enriched with not only fine foods and beverages but unambiguous artwork in your face.
“This idea came to me when I walked into Butch & Nellie’s and could feel the scene on an independent level – not only for what I am working towards with my business but with what these ladies have done with their place. Butch & Nellie’s is the perfect place to host a spoken word event in the downtown region of Sacramento,” says Aaris Schroeder of UBO Magazine and P.R. Services who founded the idea not long after Butch & Nellie’s owners had already hosted a few events, unknowingly.

UBO Magazine: The Hard Copy
UBO Magazine
The Hard Copy
By Aaris A. Schroeder
Editor-in-Chief
If promoting artists through media is in UBO Magazine's best interest and the website that is in the works is still not progressing to the standards of the artists promoted, what is the next best thing to accomplish as a media source?
UBO Magazine has decided as of May 2007 to officially go hardcopy. The decision wasn't one that was long thought over since this has been the origonal goal. In the beginning of UBO Magazine, the thought was to attract potential businesses to support independent artists through advertising in order to collect enough funds to push forward with a hardcopy magazine.
That was in 2001. It is now 2007 and there is no hardcopy, although UBO Magazine has become widly experienced in the interviewing processes, collected many photographers and staffwriters along with other various staff and affiliates and has a lot of say when it comes to media in the underground hip-hop community in Sacramento, CA.
UBO Magazine isn't talking too much but word has it that there is a print company based out of Napa Valley that will be working hand in hand with the magazine to create a mini-magazine, a sort of mock-up magazine to give music and art enthusiasts an idea of what UBO is all about.
The more support that is offered to UBO Magazine through the sponsorship campaign that is currently running the better. More information can be found at http://www.myspace.com/ubomagazine and businesses may contact UBO Magazine at ubomag@gmail.com.
