Starting on Friday, I will begin personal coverage of the inaugural celebrations. The festivities begin for me at Jay Z's Inaugural Gala. Presented by the well-known entertainment and lifestyle group Team BBC, these celebrations promise to be ones to remember.
But wait! It doesn't stop there.
Continuing throughout the weekend, Team BBC is bringing P.Diddy, T.I., Young Jeezy, Akon, Common, as well as hip hop legends Doug E. Fresh, Slick Rick, Biz Markie, and Kid Capri to the nation's capitol. It simply does not get any better.
But ladies and gentleman as you grab your tickets and assemble your attire, do me a favor and keep in mind the reason we are celebrating. It's not about the glitz and the glamour, but it's about the change we created together.
Pick your party from the list below. I look forward to seeing you.
