2010 CONVENTION RECAP
'I had a great time being on the panel at the Coast 2 Coast Convention. I was able to discuss the state of the music industry with a group of passionate people who, like myself, are already established in the industry as well as others who are trying to break into the industry. And I got to catch up with folks I have not seen in a minute. Good times in Miami in 2010....can't wait to see what is in store for 2011!'
- Jill Strada (Music Director & Assistant PD of HOT97 NY)
'I was very honored to be a part of the Coast 2 Coast mixtape convention last year. The who's who of the industry were hands on in educating anyone and everyone who was in attendance. There are many convention but Coast 2 Coast's is the one I would strongly recommend to anyone seeking knowledge about the industry. They are not the leading mixtape distributors for nothing.'
- Deborah Rigaud (Director, Business & Legal Affairs | E1 Music)
'The 2010 Coast2Coast Convention was epic! If you missed it i feel sorry for you. From the informative panels, intense showcases to the nightlife at the clubs, the whole experience was super dope!'
- Mike Trampe (HipHopDX.com & Maad Management)
