Organized Noize was recently honored for their contribution to the city of Atlanta and the music industry. During the fifth annual city-wide arts festival, ELEVATE, the history of Organized Noize and the Dungeon Family were explored through an art installation and panel discussion. This year, the theme of the festival was F.I.L.A. – Forever I Love Atlanta. As appropriate as it was, the theme captured the essence of the city and grounds in which helped create one of the most prolific music production and songwriting crews. Rico Wade, Sleepy Brown, and Ray Murray impacted the world through their music and through artists like Outkast and Goodie MOB. On Wednesday, Oct. 21, the three gentlemen sat for an intimate discussion on their careers with moderator, Maurice Hobson, PHD. The event was held at the Rialto Center in downtown Atlanta. Check out a few photos from the event: Singer, Joi, & Atlanta City Council President, Ceasar Mitchell Fahamu Pecou, Sleepy Brown, Rico Wade, Mrs Camille Russell Love, Maurice Hobson, Ray Murray and Big Gipp Organized Noize founding members Ray Murray, Rico Wade, and Sleepy Brown Photos: Prince Williams/ATLPics.net
