BrooklynAfrica World Cup Stand Up!

I must admit that I am amped about this concert combo!   I didn't make it to many good shows last summer in NYC due to me trying to get my footing but I vow that this summer will be different!  It will be more musical and on the birthday note of my homie Prem, it will be one worth "The Build". (www.premonitionmusic.com).  I just caught wind of this concert taking place at Celebrate Brooklyn! @ The Prospect Park Bandshell, July 11th, 2010 @ 4pm.  The show will be headlined by The Legendary Roots Crew Band and hosted by BK MC Talib Kweli!  

The summer will get better than this but I know this is one of the great places to start for me!  Other noteables on the show roster are:  SahrNgaujah (star of the hit Broadway show Fela!), Bajah + the Dry Eye Crew, Dragons of Zynth and one of my favorites due to his high octaned spitfire, Blitz The Ambassador!  Once stated, The Roots will be headlining this OkayAfrica World Cup 2010 Finals to celebrate the first time, in the World Cup's 80 year history, the tourney will take place on Native Soil!  It was only right that America was beaten by Ghana!  hahahahahaha!  So it is only proper for me to call this a meeting of the Native Sons!  Big Shout To Rich Wright! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Wright_(author)

I'm excited about getting involved in the Brooklyn Scene and so should you! Even if you live in the city, you know that Brooklyn is where it's at.  www.bricartsmedia.org/events/performing-arts/okayafrica-with-the-roots-and-talib-kweli
