King Ryan Events

King Ryan Events is a Los Angeles-based company that specializes in the promotion of hip-hop artists. The events promotion company hosts two showcase series, the Urban Kings Hip Hop Music Showcase and iShowcase Music. These events were established as a way to provide audiences with a source for discovering the newest generation of entertainers and to give up-and-coming musical artists a venue for industry promotion. By offering this support to new artists, King Ryan Events encourages the music industry to continually grow and aims to expand the exposure of talented performers.

King Ryan Events produces the Urban Kings Hip Hop Music Showcase on a monthly basis in Los Angeles. The company also offers the event four times per year in New York City and Atlanta. These showcases feature live hip-hop performances that spotlight an artists' stage presence and lyrical aptitude. At each event, performers compete before judges who are often influential music industry personalities. Judges for these events have come from major record labels such as Universal Music Group's Interscope Records, Sony Music Entertainment, and Def Jam Recordings. After each showcase, King Ryan invites the winners to participate in the Best of the Best, an annual Los Angeles event that celebrates independent hip-hop artists.

iShowcase Music events, which began in 2008, have taken place in numerous locations nationwide, including New York, Atlanta, Dallas, San Diego, and San Francisco. These events feature artists working in a diverse range of musical genres, from rock and roll to R & B. In addition to these showcase series, King Ryan Events also hosts charity benefits, private parties, nightclub events, and awards-show after-parties.
