It didn’t take an astrologist to discover this 12th Planet; Los Angeles born and raised John Dadzie aka 12th Planet has put in serious work this year, easily identified as one of America’s brightest shining dubstep dons on the scene.

Thousands of attendees came out to witness live art creations, theatrical performances, carnival freaks and exotic beats….
