ABOUT THE JUSTICE FOR TRAYVON MARTIN FOUNDATION
The Justice For Trayvon Martin Foundation was founded in 2012 with the mission of pursuing justice for all people of color on behalf of Trayvon Martin, the son of Sybrina Fulton & Tracy Martin. The main goal of the fund is to address the civil rights and social issues while addressing the uplifting and advancement of young minorities. The foundation also has set its sights on ultimately amending the "Stand Your Ground" law, which is enforced in Florida as well as many other states.
ABOUT PLIES
With his award-winning streak of hit singles and smash albums, Plies is without question one of the modern era's biggest hip-hop superstars. 2010's "GOON AFFILIATED" followed the rapper's two 2008 releases, the RIAA gold certified "DEFINITION OF REAL" -- featuring the #1 single, "Bust It Baby Part 2 (Feat. Ne-Yo)" -- and "Da REAList," which debuted at #1 on Billboard's "Top Rap Albums" chart upon its December 2008 release. The two collections followed hot on the heels of Plies' enormously popular 2007 debut, "THE REAL TESTAMENT," which received RIAA gold certification fueled by the gold-certified blockbuster singles, "Shawty (Feat. T-Pain)" and "Hypnotized (Feat. Akon)."
