REV RUN PRESENTS TEAM BLACKOUT - DEBUT LP, LIGHTS OUT, TO BE RELEASED ON 8-19-08

INTRODUCING THE NEXT GENERATION OF HIP-HOP: TEAM BLACKOUT ? STARS OF THE HIT MTV SERIES RUN?S HOUSE

If you’ve been following the hit MTV reality series Run?s House starring Reverend Run (of Run-DMC), then you already know about the hip-hop trio Team Blackout. Team Blackout consists of Rev Run?s teenage son JoJo Simmons and his childhood friends Zach, and Reggie. The Queens / Long Island natives have been rhyming together since the 7^th grade, but it wasn?t until the 2003 New York City Blackout that JoJo, Zach and Reggie decided to officially unite and form Team Blackout ? hence the name.

Rev. Run’s daughters are busy, busy girls. Not only are they pursuing their college education, and marketing their own sneaker line, but Vanessa Simmons is acting, and Angela is working on an album to be released this year.

The debut single is titled, “Center of Attention”. There’s a clip of it on the Pastrykicks sneaker website. You can check it out here. Let me know what you think.

Rev. Run and his family are also currently filming the 5th season of their MTV reality show, Run’s House, which will return in July.

Here’s a video of the star of MTV’s Run’s House, Rev. Run at a sneaker store in Manhattan, promoting his new kicks.

The title of the video is, “I Got Rev. Run’s autograph. Then we both had a Red Bull and a Prozac.” He had to have been either very bored or very tired.

Run’s House will be returning to MTV for a fifth season. He’s currently performing on tour with Kid Rock, and has his own clothing line, Run Athletics. And his daughters also have their own sneaker line, Pastry sneakers.
