On November 6th, 2009, 4C The Power held another successful workshop to coincide with the “BE the Difference” concert. We’re honored to be a part of the workshops alongside the Gamblerz, Seriously, Lawrence Kao of Kaba Modern, Vudoo Soul, IZ, Clara Chung, DJ Nick Fury, and Commoners & Kings.

Check out the rest of the photos from the workshop here.

Special thanks to Alex Yee for helping out with the photos!

The purpose of the event was to help collect donations from the community to support the school’s budget. Wilson High School enrolls approximately 1,700 students but has a significantly reduced budget this year. The Hacienda Center intended to host this concert with the hope that the local community will embrace Wilson High School with services and donations that will better the future of the youth.

The event was held in an approximate 25,000 sq ft. closed off parking lot pad located within the center.

The lineup for the concert event consisted of the following artists:

Kaba Modern (featured on MTV’s America’s Best Dance Crew Season 1)

Gamblerz (World renowned B Boy group, Battle of the Year 2004 & 2009 Winners)

Vudoo Soul (appeared on American Idol)

Seriously (Winner of Kollaboration)

Clara Chung (Winner of ISA 09 JCPenney Schooled in Style Breakout Performer)

IZ

Alex Shiau ft. Vivian Chen

Catterfly

Jamie Hardy

Various Glen A. Wilson High School Acts

100% of the donations that were made went to Wilson High School during the event! There was also a really awesome Meet and Greet with artists after the event!!

Exclusive behind the scenes look at the making of the Millionaire Music Video directed by Todd Angkasuwan and Wong Fu Productions.

There was a little Q&A session. All of students in attendance had their questions answered.

Here’s KevNish, always on top of his blog game.

The group then broke up into their respective workshops.

Taught by the Far East Movement and the Stereotypes, this group had write rhymes over a crazy beat.

It’s not easy making hit records!

Wesley Chan, Wong Fu Productions, uses a Flip Camera to teach a workshop on the basics video production process.

This wasn’t a workshop. During break time, DJ Virman, Jin, and Ray Ro from the Stereotypes played a little game of HORSE.

Time for a little show and tell to recap the day’s events.

Everyone showed off their designs and creations for the day. Check out that Joker shirt!

Showing off a dance to “Girls On the Dance Floor”.

On stage performing the songs they worked so hard on writing during the workshop!

Jin ended the day by battling some of the willing student MCs.
