Minneapolis Hip-Hop and Social Media:A presentation by Av Mellen
A Brief History of Rhymesayers ,[object Object]
 In 1999 the label opened its own record store in Uptown Minneapolis called Fifth Element. The store has become a staple of hip hop in the Twin Cities, specializing in local music, but also selling independent and commercial hip hop.
In 2008 rhymesayers organized the first Soundset festival, an all day hip-hop and art festival that features exclusively independent hip-hop acts. Soundset has since grown to become the 3rd largest annual hip-hop festival. ,[object Object]
How Rhymesayers use Facebook: ,[object Object]
Updates on upcoming shows, releases, special events, etc.
Links to all the Rhymesayers artists.

Links to youtube videos, and other artist creations.,[object Object]
Forgotten about Myspace? Rhymesayers hasn’t! Although, it pretty much mirrors their Facebook page. But at least they’re willing to go down in the trenches for those fans who still use it.
And of course, no company can really claim to be in the social media game if they aren’t using Twitter and Youtube. Just like with Myspace and Facebook, Rhymesayers use these tools primarily for artist promotion and fan interaction.
Rhymesayers partners with the digital media company SevnthSin, which provides the web and aplication content to some of Minnesota’s largest companies. e.g. The Timberwolves, Target, Harley Davidson, etc.
