About Raydio
Raydio is an American funk and R&B vocal group formed in the late 1970’s by Ray Parker Jr., with Vincent Bonham, Jerry Knight, and Arnell Carmichael. After securing a record deal, the group scored their first big hit in early 1978 with “Jack and Jill.” The song was from their self-titled debut album. The song peaked at #8 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart, and reached #11 in the UK Singles Chart, earning a gold record in the process. “Is This a Love Thing” peaked at #27 in the UK in August 1978. Their next successful follow-up hit, “You Can’t Change That” was released in 1979, and lifted from their Rock On album. The single reached #9 on the Billboard chart that year.
About National Hall of Fame
The presentation and induction will take place on September 24, 2023. Location: Dr. LaVonne M. Sheffield Bridge Center,
The National Rhythm & Blues Hall of Fame Foundation is a 501(c)(3). Founded in 2010 by basketball legend and American Basketball Hall of Famer LaMont “ShowBoat” Robinson. Every year the Hall of Fame has attracted music fans to come each year to the induction ceremonies. Attendees come as far as Europe to our always sold-out Black-Tie Red Carpet Gala. The National Rhythm & Blues Hall of Fame has enshrined over 200 world-renowned artists. Some of those artists are James Brown, Aretha Franklin, Michael Jackson, Prince, Elvis Presley, many more.
New building
The goal is to build a state-of-the-art complex in the City of Marks, Quitman County Mississippi. The building will honor the legacy of rhythm and blues, blues, gospel, jazz, and hip-hop music.
The National Rhythm & Blues Hall of Fame will be a great major tourists attraction that could bring over 250,000-500,000 tourists to the city of Marks, Mississippi. It will bring more than 100 jobs and place dollars into the metro annual economy, like the Rock Hall dose in the city of Cleveland, OH and how the Country Music Hall of Fame does in Nashville, TN.
The goal is not to build a funeral parlor with lights like most of the hall of fame and museums are today, but to build a high-tech state-of-the-art 50,000 sq. ft. highly interactive, virtual reality, 3D hologram experience center that will be the Disneyland of Music. We have developed a full concept plan and layout for this project. This project would appeal to major corporate sponsors and would also offer the naming rights etc.
