Hip Hop Grub Spot Challenges Hip Hop Soda Shop

Hip Hop Grub Spot Promo Video

Looks like the Hip Hop Grub Spot in Miami is going to benefit from the extended buildup to the opening of the HipHopSodaShop in St. Petersburg since both seem to be opening around the same unspecified time and have some striking similarities.

Despite the rough camera work in the above video, this can't be happy news for the folks from HipHopSodaShop's H3 Enterprises who have been building a rather complicated sounding company including H3TV, an acquisition creating flat screen HDTVs for gamers, as well as "H3Raps, H3WhiteTeaBeverages, H3Players.com, H3Merchandising, and H3Players' WorldSeries of CyberSports."  What they haven't done is open a HipHopSodaShop.

Check out the Hip Hop Grub Spot's self-description from their press release:

Hip Hop Grub Spot, is a Hip Hop themed, healthy fast-food global franchise which incorporates, student executive/entrepreneur training, in-store video gaming provided by Microsoft XBOX, with support by Hip Hop artists and professional athletes. It will also retail magazines, DVDs, mix-tapes, and apparel; while serving fast, fresh, healthy sandwiches, wraps, smoothies, and energy drinks.

And compare with H3 Enterprises' description of the HipHopSodaShop concept on their official site:

The HipHopSodaShop franchise is the backbone of all H3 related businesses and encapsulates not only the numerous revenue streams that the Company has developed but also embodies the “community conscious” approach that H3 applies to all of its endeavors. The HipHopSodaShop is a unique restaurant concept that celebrates the skyrocketing demand for everything Hip Hop, complete with a healthy quick service menu, merchandising, memorabilia, giant LCD screens, and a large area dedicated to competitive Video Gaming...H3 has...signed agreements with several top athletes and Hip Hop stars for Area Development Agreements to further accelerate the SodaShops’ market penetration and prominence in the community.

Food, video games, merchandise, social responsibility and big name involvement all tied together with a hip hop theme.  There are a variety of differences between these companies but I'd hate to be the one pitching those during a 30-second local tv interview.

Cynically Tempting ProHipHop Brainstorm:
I know a great spot down the block to launch my latest project, The Hip Hop Chicken Shack.  Opening day proceeds will benefit the Jena 6.

ProHipHop will co-sponsor the 1st Annual Hip Hop Chicken Shack "Shoot the Klansman With TIP's Automatic Weaponry" video game tournament in multiple locations  throughout the Deep South.

Colonel Saunders, your time is over, baby.  We're burning the plantation down and grilling Hip Hop Chicken over the open flames!

Update:
The domain HipHopChickenShack.com is now available for purchase!
