Miller Genuine Draft Presents:
LUDACRIS at the House of Blues Friday, September 24, 2010
You can call Chris "Ludacris" Bridges a number of things. Hip-hop superstar. Actor. Entrepreneur. Philanthropist. Restaurateur. Pitchman. Online visionary. Columnist. All of these labels are accurate, and with his forthcoming October 21st album release, Theater Of The Mind, the Grammy winning, Atlanta-based entertainment maven shows that, as he continues expanding his reach, his musical prowess remains as potent as ever. Indeed, Theater Of The Mind highlights Ludacris' rap supremacy, on a number of levels. "I call myself the MVP of rap," he says. "When you put everything together in rap, as far as lyrics, visuals, record sales, personality, conceptual songs, I feel like I'm the summation of all. I feel like there's nothing I can't do."
Ludacris has good reason to feel that way. His acting career remains on an enviable trajectory. After star-making appearances on the NBC drama Law and Order SVU, the Oscar-winning Crash and the independent film sensation Hustle & Flow, Ludacris stands as one of the most in-demand actors in Hollywood. With Ludacris' visibility in a variety of media at unprecedented levels, it's no wonder major corporations enlist Ludacris as an endorser. He has worked with Puma, XM Satellite Radio and Boost Mobile, and is the first rap act signed by communications giant AT&T to represent its brand.
So even as Ludacris becomes a bankable Hollywood star, a respected label head, a multi-faceted entrepreneur and a philanthropist, music remains his first love. "Music is still No. 1," he says. "Theater Of The Mind should showcase that."
