Santana and Gordon, along with their partners H3Enterprises, Inc., will be at the ESPN Zone in Manhattan on Thursday (May 25) to make the official announcement about the store and explain it in detail. Both Santana and Gordon are glad to be working with 3Enterprises, Inc. (HTRE), the first publicly traded company devoted to the hip hop generation.

Santana performed at the HipHopSodaShop booth to kick off the NBA Players Association party during All-Star Weekend. Gordon, who grew up in Mount Vernon, NY, officially joined TeamH3 last week, when he launched his White Tea-based energy drink BG7 in Chicago. "It's time for every one of us to start giving back," said Gordon via a press release statement. "HTRE is all about investing in our own culture and in our own communities, keeping everything healthy and affordable. right “The store on 125th alone will create about one hundred new jobs where people can feel good about going to work each day.” Gordon also shared that the partnership is busy setting up scholarship programs and computer giveaways. Santana feels great about putting up a shop in his hometown of Harlem, especially considering the Uptown, New York region is drastically changing. “I'm just seeing what's going on in Harlem and it's like they’re just moving us out and bringing everyone else in,” Santana said on BET’s 106 & Park. “The way Harlem is going to be in a couple of years, a lot of things are going to be worth a lot of money.”
