Jim Jones

Jim Jones, Busta Rhymes and Bow Bow are among the celebrities scheduled to appear at Entertainers 4 Education's third annual, star-studded stay in school concert tomorrow (October 28), in New York City.

They have also tapped a slew of hip-hop celebrities to perform, model, and give their own personal testimonials about the importance of education.  Scheduled attendees include Ryan Leslie, Donnie Klang, Jaslene Gonzalez, Terrence J, Julissa Bermudez, Juelz Santana, Lil' Mama, Kevin Liles, John Starks and Sway Calloway.

In addition to many boldfaced names, the event will also feature resources like college information tables and mentoring and recruitment stations for the attendees.

The concert, which will be hosted by Hot 97 personalities, DJ Cipha Sounds and Peter Rosenberg, will take place from 4-6 p.m. at the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York and will be broadcast to thousands of students across the nation via the internet.

okay .. lemme get this straight. kids are supposed to get advice and endorsement from jim jones to stay in school. this idiot probably didnt even graduate high school. this is the same dude that says the recession doesnt effect him so he's gonna pop champagne. the state of hip hop is disgusting and its no suprise that the babylon of all radio stations hot 97 is sponsering this. jim jones doesnt care about anybody but himself and feeds little kids poison and this is who's supposed to be a positive influence on our kids. i cannot wait till armaggedon comes and everyone on this filthy evil planet gets their just due.
