Day1 of the A3C Hip Hop Festival in Atlanta, GA has gone down. If you love hip hop (beyond ringtone rappers)…then you will be at Day2 and Day3.
The three room venue, CW Midtown is currently home to one of the best festival productions I have ever seen. The vendors and booths are fitting…from a ltd edition sneaker shop to the URB Barbershop. Security and entrance was not annoying. Just make sure to bring cash for the bar.
Little Brother was the highlight of Day1 for me, coming with yet another outstanding show–they’ve really got it together when it comes to knowing how to be PERFORMERS. I loved hearing a few Minstrel Show jams, but (and it’s rare I say this) hearing tracks off their newest album was the best part–they turned the concert into the dancefloor, and everyone was gettin down.
I’m trying to save my energy for what I’m looking forward to most: 36 Mafia and The Clipse on Day3! And in addition to that, URB has got 150th Issue coverstar Wale (Nov/Dec 08), current Next100 Issue coverstar B.o.B. (Mar/Apr 08), and several of our Next100 artists performing in the next two days. If you haven’t already bought tickets, you can still come through and buy them at the door.
Check back at urb.com within the next few days for more review, photos, and video!
