Paid Dues 2012 Lineup Finalized!

I told people that Paid Dues 2012 was far from done. Well, finally here it is! Murs did a great job of combining the old with the new and really making Paid Dues much more of an all day diverse music experience opposed to just another "underground Hiphop" festival.

Hiphop purists will shit on the selections of Mac Miller, Odd Future, Three-6 Mafia, and a few others. However, can't front on the addditions of LA Symphony, Boot Camp Clik, and People Under The Stairs amongst others.

Murs even went out of his way to add Lecrae, whom is a super sick Christian MC!

Many local homies got on the bill such as Trek Life, Curtiss King, Swim Team, Reverie, and Noa James as a host.

I'm very excited about the show. This just might be the first year the attendance eclipses 20,000 heads! Catch me on the streets with a flyer in hand homey!

Cypress Hill Smokeout Announces Full Lineup

Earlier today the 2012 Cypress Hill Smokeout lineup was completed and announced. Plenty of people complained that the lineup needed more Hiphop. With the additions of Mobb Deep, Danny Brown, Fashawn, Nipsey Hussle, and ScHoolboy Q, many more heads should be pleased.

The Stoned Garden stage was beefed up with the additions of MSTRKRFT and Wolfgang Gartner. Also Low End Theory was given their own stage to rock out on all day!

The one band I was not familiar with is Ritmo Machine, however it's the new project featuring Latin Bitman and Eric Bobo. I just checked them out, and they're on the super dope live beat tip. They recently released their first record, Welcome To The Ritmo Machine, on Nacional Records. Check out their Youtube. They have some sick videos.


This looks to be another dope Smokeout!
