Rap-A-Lot Records CEO James "J. Prince" Prince will be honored Tuesday by the City of Houston with a day of his own.
Houston mayor Bill White and City Council Member Ron Green will conduct a city proclamation honoring Prince for more than 20 years of commitment and dedication for giving back to the city.
The result of the proclamation, which takes place at 1:30 p.m. in the Houston City Council chambers at City Hall, will be an official James Prince Day in Houston.
The recognition comes on the heels of a recent groundbreaking for a new recreation center Prince is building in Houston's 5th Ward.
The facility, which will be located across from the Prince Boxing Complex in the 3000 block of Jensen, will provide a variety of services for children in the community ranging from computer courses to athletics.
The event held Friday (Jan. 26), attracted Prince’s family as well as a host of community leaders, including Texas House of Representatives member Sylvester Turner, Houston City Councilman Jarvis Johnson and community activist Debbie Allen.
The multi-million dollar recreation center will be run by the Rev. Herb Shook, who will serve as executive director.
Prince founded the legendary Houston-based Rap-A-Lot Records in 1986.
