Always a high profile entertainment industry event, The Core Retreat is known for attracting the biggest names and brands. Previous participants include Diddy, Jive Records, Akon, BET, Bad Boy, Erykah Badu, Ciroc, Interscope Records, and J Records just to name a few. The initial response to this year’s theme has been outstanding, with confirmed participation from athlete label owners including Bryant McKinnie (Vikings), Carmelo Anthony (Knicks), Amare Stoudemire (Knicks), and Nick Barnette (Packers). “I’m approached all the time by my friends who play professional sports trying to gain a better understanding of the business side of music. This conference will serve to get them on the right track,” Neal explains.
Now in its 7th year, the Core DJs Worldwide is the premier coalition for DJs, with a membership of 500 of the country’s most influential DJs, as well as international DJ Talent. Some of its most well known members include actor Idris Elba, DJ Low Down Loretta Brown (aka Erykah Badu), and syndicated personality Big Tigger. The retreat seeks to provide knowledge and resources to labels and artists, while also introducing their music to the multitude of DJs, media, major label executives, brand reps, and thousands of patrons that attend each retreat. This retreat will also offer new features to enhance the experience for participants including the Core Press Room, where talent can be interviewed & present single to media covering the event.
