Performing live:
CunninLynguists |
CunninLynguists, a trio, made up of a preacher's son, a Caucasian guy from rural Georgia and a convicted felon, bring a piquant flavor that meshes gruff vocals, with soulful hooks and genre stretching bombastic grooves that defy definition. "Since 2001, the CunninLynguists have been redefining the sound of Southern hip-hop," says XLR8R magazine. Firmly entrenched in the pioneering legacy of Goodie Mob's Soulfood and Oukast's ATLians, CunninLynguists leap out of the congested crowd of today's Southern rap. Life and death, racism, relationships, religion, strife and striving are topics touched on by rappers, Deacon the Villain, Natti and Kno. Holding their own in collaborations with Cee-lo, Immortal Technique and Devin the Dude put the CunniLynguists among respected company. | ||||||

With DJs: |
This is an eventful evening focused on the hidden worlds, bringing them out of the woodwork, to join together and bring untold stories to life. It is about skills that are overlooked and uncredited. The ones that become lost art, they come from intensive practice and the passion that helps sustain a balanced living in these contrived times. This fashion is art varying from old lore on a continuum of industrious futurism, in a wearable form. It brings to life characters, creatures and creations of another time, another place and another world that has become misunderstood through fear of the shadows in time. | ||||||
