Comprising a rhyme-spitting trio from Palmdale, a soulful electro duo fronted by a gorgeous girl with a mohawk, and an 8-bit rapper, tonight's bill includes some of the freshest acts in LA. The tech-savvy sneaker freakers of Pacific Division are on their way to becoming the new face of California hip-hop; with a breezy, Pharell-esque sound, their upcoming F.A.T. LP features Exile and DJ Khalil alongside the group's longtime producer, Swiff-D. J*DaVeY play a deadly fusion of soul, new wave, and chunky electronic breakbeat, while local favorite the Gray Kid brings his Atari rap to the party.
