New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ IDJTA Awards) - August 8th -11th, 2010 marks the date for the annual IDJTA Awards to be held in downtown Atlanta, Georgia at the Renaissance-Atlanta Hotel.
Set to be one of the greatest and most entertaining awards ceremonies to take place in Atlanta this year. The IDJTA Awards is an award show that breaks all of the rules of conventionalism. Unlike the Grammy Awards or the Billboard Music Awards, the IDJTA Awards was created to give back to the individuals most responsible for the music we listen to daily-the DJ's.
This celebration is an opportunity for all music genres to include, but not limited to Hip-Hop, Rock, Pop, R&B, Country, Soul, Reggae, Calypso, Salsa, Alternative, Jazz, and Techno to come together to honor the accomplishments of disc jockeys and pioneers in the industry. This event serves as a night to celebrate the culture and essence of their craft. The award ceremony will consist of DJ's, pioneers, entrepreneurs, and artists past and present that are coming together to change the face of music.
