212NYC Announces Multi-platinum recording artist Tip "T.I." Harris and Messiah to Perform at the 9th Annual Summer Party

The event brings together thousands of advertising industry professionals, including luminaries, agency representatives, and publishers, for an unforgettable networking experience. Top industry professionals mingle in seaside luxury cabanas, kick back with signature drinks, and enjoy the musical stylings of first-rate live talent (past performers include Wyclef Jean, Wu-Tang Clan, Talib Kweli, 50 Cent, and DJ Cassidy) all in a unique and intimate setting.

The 2017 talent lineup includes Grammy-Award winning rapper/actor/entrepreneur Tip "T.I." Harris, "Spanish Remix King" Messiah, and downtown NYC darling DJ Belinda Becker. Tip has gained global recognition for his chart-topping music and starring roles in blockbuster films. He has released nine studio albums, with seven of them reaching the top five of the US Billboard 200 chart. Throughout his career, he has also released several highly successful singles, including BRING EM OUT, WHATEVER YOU LIKE, LIVE YOUR LIFE (featuring Rihanna), DEAD AND GONE (featuring Justin Timberlake), BALL (featuring Lil Wayne) and NO MEDIOCRE (featuring Iggy Azalea). Tip has also had a successful acting career. His credits include History's Emmy nominated Roots; HBO's Ballers, Marvel's ANT-MAN; GET HARD; IDENTITY THIEF, alongside Melissa McCarthy and Jason Bateman; SLEEPLESS alongside Oscar winner Jamie Foxx; AMERICAN GANGSTER; and Chris Robinson's ATL.

Steering 212NYC, and their many dynamic events, are a diverse Board of Directors that include executives from Google, Mashable, Mindshare, Onmincom, Snap Inc., Spotify, and Zenith. The organization's President Frank Minishak (SVP and General Manager at Cadreon) speaks to 212NYC's mission of connecting, confronting, and collaborating: 

"One of our roles is to highlight the senior and junior leaders who are helping to transform the industry, and create platforms… Another role is to elevate trending topics and innovation in our community and to authentically challenge industry norms that we feel deserve more dialogue. Issues like: How advertisers deal with fake news; industry etiquette; the role of TV; and, our industry's startling lack of diversity and dearth of talent. This year, expect us to take on more controversial topics, bring in new partners, host at new venues, and bring on a higher level of speakers and discourse."

Along with the highly anticipated Summer Party, 212NYC offers a wide array of social events and thought leadership panels for their members throughout the year. Membership is free to all agency and brand professionals and only $125/year for publishers and providers.

212NYC Summer Party tickets begin at $165 for publisher/providers; and $50 for agency/brand members. Sponsorship and discount ticket packages are also available.
