We’re even more excited about the same opportunity to use the award towards band operations, scholarships, and initiatives that will allow us to move the FAMU Marching 100 forward.
The rules stipulated that the school to receive the highest engagement on their video will receive a $25,000 donation total to the winning school’s music department/Band Program from Young Thug’s record label Young Stoner Life Records & Kevin Liles and 300 Entertainment.
After weeks of anticipation, 300 Entertainment Co-Founder and CEO Kevin Liles traveled to the winning HBCU and surprised them during band practice. Liles himself is a proud HBCU graduate himself, hailing from Morgan State University. Watch the surprise.
