Ci To Participate In 'Turn Up The Vote' Summit This Weekend

With the Pennsylvania primary less than a week away, T.I. and a full cast of his peers � including Ciara, Flo Rida and Jim Jones � are heading to Philadelphia this weekend to remind the youth to go to the polls. The Hip-Hop Summit Action Network, in association with the Hip-Hop Research and Education Fund and PowerPAC, will have their Turn Up the Vote National Hip-Hop Summit at Temple University on Sunday. It's dedicated to encouraging voting among young people. "I am pleased to have the opportunity to travel to Philadelphia to participate in the Hip-Hop Summit," T.I. said in a released statement Wednesday (April 16) that alluded to his recent legal troubles. "We are going to encourage young people to go out to vote. I personally know the value of having the right to vote and it taken away from you, but I will add my voice to help inspire others to take seriously this right and responsibility."
