Welcome to the European Division of The Black Wall Street

1) What is the Black Wall Street and what it stands for?

The Black Wall Street is an organization and corporation that is interested in the primary social development and economic advancement of the Hip Hop (urban) community, by providing cultural enlightenment via the Art and Entertainment division: Fashion (Apparel) and Music Division (Record Label), by providing Gang Intervention (Non Profit organization) and now also by providing a European division.

Black Wall Street is a developed independent record label with aspirations of extending its influence outside the realm of music. BWS was conceived following the introduction of Johnny Hooks (John Abbey) and The Game (Jayceon Taylor). These two individual forces were brought together by the efforts of Nu Jerzey Devil (Anthony Torres), Game’s producer. Hooks initially interacted with Nu Jerzy Devil and Fase while collaborating on an album for his Top of the World Records artist, Heat (Frank Rivera). During that process, Nu Jerzy Devil and Fase recognized in Hooks the same passion they share with Game. Consequently, they arranged the introduction of Hooks and Game with intentions of working together on Heat’s album. That initial meeting was extremely successful and an instant relationship was formed. It was obvious to both that they share a lot in common. Game was particularly interested in Hooks’ newest venture — the development of an urban center. Nu Jerzy Devil and Fase were continually updating Game about Hooks’ progress with his project.

Their unwavering belief in Hooks prompted Game to request a meeting with Hooks and Nu Jerzy Devil in NY. They agreed that the meaning of the “Black Wall Street” name represented their strong foundation. Aside from being an independent record label, Black Wall Street East is involved in the development of urban centers. They are currently involved with the city of Pleasantville, NJ and are in the process of acquiring property in LA. The initial center in Pleasantville will house a studio distribution center, offices and retail stores. This center will undoubtedly create employment opportunities and improved housing conditions for the community.

Hooks and Game intend on taking their concept and visions to a national level, touching on all four corners of the USA. They possess all that is necessary to turn their dreams into reality. Their motto of “We don’t hope, we Do” will fuel their inevitable success.
