Description
We were fortunate enough to recruit Top Dawg Entertainment recording artist KENDRICK LAMAR for a much anticipated performance at the 9:30 Club, making it his first-ever public show in the nation's capital. The Compton standout is expected to sell out the 1200 capacity venue thanks to his loyal following in the DC metropolitan area. Kendrick will be joined on stage by fellow label mate SCHOOLBOY Q as he cycles through his hits spanning from his early career to his most recent project, the critically acclaimed #Section80. Also sharing the spotlight for the evening are buzzing DMV natives PHIL ADE and PHIL DA PHUTURE, both signees of Grammy nominated crooner Raheem DeVaughn's 368 Music Group, as well as Houston's own ASHTON TRAVIS, a lyrical mastermind recently crowned winner of the Hip-Hop Unplugged Series, hosted by Def Jam's Lenny Santiago and MTV's Sway. You never know who else may pop up, either...

We should add that the more support this event gets, the more everybody across the nation and the world will respect our city. We're just trying to put DC in the game. People think about politics and government when they think about this area, so we're working really hard to change that.
Thanks for listening! Hit us back here or on Twitter (@DCtoBC) if you have any questions, and enjoy the day.
