MIAMI, FL / ACCESSWIRE / December 28, 2023 / Taylor Port Wine, a renowned brand in the wine category, kicked off their campaign empowering women in Hip Hop and celebrating their contributions during the 50th Year of Hip Hop celebrations. The brand believes in ensuring that these talented women are recognized and appreciated for their immense impact on the music industry.

"Highlighting and honoring Black women is not only important, it's crucial for the wine industry's growth," said Darius Hicks, Sr. Brand Manager for Taylor Port Wine. "At Taylor Port, we push to create not just elevated experiences, but experiences that are authentic and relevant to the community we serve. We can have a great time, share some amazing moments, and pour the Taylor Port all while we celebrate black women."

A notable aspect of the brand's week-long celebration is the multicultural minority team spearheading the effort at Taylor Port Wine and their supporting vendors. "This team is passionate about ensuring that women in Hip Hop and black women, Taylor Port's core consumers are not overlooked and that their talent and influence are celebrated." said Davinea Payne, Sr. Associate Brand Manager for Taylor Port Wine.

The brand's Art Basal activation was highlighted by an incredible luxury yacht party hosted by and honoring music Icon and prominent Hip Hop figure, Trina. Trina not only represents excellence but has also shown support for the next generation of Femcees. As a tribute to her achievements, Taylor Port Wine presented Trina with a custom designed microphone and a custom art piece curated dockside during the event by Artist, Demont Pinder. The evening was made more incredible by a special performance from Maiya The Don and a powerful moment of black girl magic shared between Maiya The Don and Trina.
