The eight bands were selected through a process that included online fan voting, as well as feedback from band directors, <strong>HBCU</strong> presidents and <strong>American Honda</strong> representatives. In addition to a $20,000 grant from Honda to support their music education programs, each participating <strong>HBCU</strong> will receive travel and accommodations to the <strong>Invitational Showcase</strong> in Atlanta.”Honda Battle of the Bands is a once-in-a-lifetime experience that helps <strong>HBCU</strong> student musicians showcase their talent, represent their communities and universities, and discover their greatness, both on and off the field,” said Steve Morikawa, Vice President, Corporate Relations and Social Responsibility, <strong>American Honda</strong>. “Ludacris has supported <strong>HBOB</strong> for many years. His presence helps the students realize how far dreams, hard work and dedication can take them, and we’re happy to welcome him back to the <strong>HBOB</strong> stage.”</p><div class='code-block code-block-8' style='margin: 8px auto; text-align: center; display: block; clear: both;'>
