T-Pain, Future, The Game + More Team Up With Star Basketball Players For Full Court Press Volume 1
New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Missing Piece Group) Full Court Press Records are proud to announce the first in a series of releases that combine skilled athletes with skilled MC's, a unique combination to take hip-hop to the net. FULL COURT PRESS, VOL.1 will be released this fall, at the start of basketball season. The album will be released in collaboration with The Cherry Party, a newly formed record label in joint venture with Sony Music.

Yesterday a behind the scenes look at the making of the album debuted on Slam Magazine's site, as did the first single "I'm A Champion, featuring performances by
T-Pain, Dorrough, Young Cash, and baller Shawn Marion.

Marion, along with other star players including Carlos Boozer, Glen "Big Baby" Davis, Iman Shumpert and Maurice Peterson (associated with the legendary basketball cities of Dallas, Chicago, Orlando and New York) have teamed up with top selling artists such as Future, The Game, T-Pain, Twista and Ma$e to create a motivating, inspirational album.

FULL COURT PRESS is the creative vision of A&R Executive Shannon "Slam" Ridley. As a single father to twin boys, Ridley was looking for ways to inspire and encourage them. "With over a decade of successes at Bad Boy Records, I understand the power of hip-hop on American culture. I thought it would be really cool if I could enjoy listening to Hip-Hop with my children the way we enjoy an NBA game!" With that, Full Court Press was born.

"Why not make a clean, inspiring, Hip-Hop Album combining the world's greatest basketball players & rappers. NO disrespecting women, NO curse words, NO "N" word, NO glorification of drug use, while keeping the integrity of the music with hard driving tracks." Record label executive Joseph "Screwface" Charles helped make this album a reality and bought the project home bringing in top rappers and ball players to record.

Full Court Press Vol. 1 will benefit the 'nPlay Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to win the fight against childhood obesity; 'nPlay helps schools to integrate physical activity into their daily routine, and to increase the amount of overall physical activity kids get daily. Leaders in education have learned that more Physical Ed, leads to healthier students which actually improves performance not only on the playground but in the classroom. 'nPlay Founder Eric Cohen says, "As an organization made up of athletes, we are committed to getting our children more physically active. We are excited to have Full Court, The Cherry Party and all of the musicians and athletes on this record join us in helping our children have a healthier future." As Glen "Big Baby" Davis reflects on the album "Kids love music and kids love athletes - to get athletes and artist together and creative a positive message that's strong, that's strong - kids will LISTEN."

FULL COURT PRESS Vol. 1 features 10 brand new tracks including "Welcome to NY" with Iman Shumpert & Ma$e,"Winning Streak" with Twista, Willie Taylor & Carlos Boozer, "Go Hard" featuring Bun B & Stephen Jackson, "We Hoopin' (Yeah Boy)" with Charlie Villanueva & Royce Da 5'9","Airtime" featuring Future, Sean Garrett, Rocko & Lou Williams and much more to be announced soon.

Today, July 29th, the lead off track "I'm A Champion" saluting the Maverick city of Dallas, and featuring performances by T-Pain, Dorrough, Young Cash & Shawn Marion will be available everywhere.
