Eric Zuley presented the Award for Urban Kings Best Hip Hop Album to Skeet.
King Ryan knows how to promote events and get people to attend, but he works with unprofessional and rude people such as those in security who do not know how to distinguish celebrities or media. King Ryan is helping the community by giving the kids an opportunity to showcase their art and take them away from the streets.
Some of the celebrities who attended the event were: Maryam Shepardson (KLAS FM Maryam Talk Radio host), Bianca Renne (Model/Actress/Host and Dancer), Eric Ronald Kandell (Model and Actor), Ryan Torres (Actors Manager), Arthur Edmonds (NCIS Los Angeles), Betrice Coleman-Sweet (Publicist), Charyse Monet (Actress), Vanessa Ray (Model / Actress) and Michael Benz (Events Host).

Additionally, Eric is passionate about community service. His role as a host for WTV evolved from the original premise of the company, which was to chronicle Eric’s own road to stardom. As Eric’s career quickly progressed, WTV became the perfect compliment to another venture he undertook as a publicist with Gith Public Relations. Both companies have turned heads amongst Hollywood’s elite with their top notch event coverage and promotion at Hollywood’s hottest red carpet events.
