Speaking of things that “softened demand” for Rock the Bells DC tickets, this lineup of DC Hip Hop Stars at the Vocab On Xray show for Saturday, September 28, 2013 should prove to be a big winner.
Brought to you by the Beat Konductaz, the Vocab on Xray (VOX) show will showcase emcees, DJs, and producers that have been holding down REAL hip hop in the DC area for nearly 20 years. The Beat Konductaz have a lot of DC hip hop goods for your viewing pleasure online at the Beat Konductaz site and the Beat Konductaz webisodes on YouTube.
Two of the emcees performing at the VOX, Dimensions and Head-Roc, have albums reviewed here on DC Brand 99. In shameless shout-outs, I became a Krayola fan around 1994, been following the Radio Rahim activism this past year, and I also really, really dig Theory’s beats.
Last two times I partied in Virginia, I was hitting thrash metal shows with the turntablist DJ TDAWG, so let’s hit a hop in Fairfax and see what’s good!
