Rock the Bells festival returns to D.C.
In honor of the touring hip-hop festival’s 10th anniversary, Rock the Bells will pull into D.C.’s RFK Festival Grounds, September 28-29.
This will mark the festival’s triumphant return to the D.C. market after a two-year hiatus. The festival had become a summer staple at Merriweather Post Pavilion, but after Lauryn Hill nearly derailed the entire show in 2010, the touring mega-fest has not returned.
This year, Rock the Bells is back at a bigger venue for two days, and the initial artists announcement is enough to have us sold: Wu-Tang Clan (with an Ol’ Dirty Bastard hologram), Bone Thugs n Harmony (With an Eazy-E hologram), Black Hippy (Kendrick Lamar, Schoolboy Q, Ab-Soul and Jay Rock), Kid Cudi, Common, Tyler the Creator, Juicy J, E-40 & Too $hort, Danny Brown, Talib Kweli, Flatbush Zombies, Hopsin, Bodega Bamz and more.

BREAKING: DAFT PUNK AT COACHELLA 2013?
The reclusive robot duo’s VEVO page may have spoiled a huge surprise for this year’s Coachella Music & Arts festival. If you look at the bar on the right, it seems to indicate Daft Punk will be performing at Empire Polo Field on April 12, 2013. In summation: Holy fucking shit.

Line-up Announced for the Hangout Beach, Music and Arts Festival
The Gulf Shore’s premiere music festival has officially announced its lineup for this year. In all honesty, it is a little underwhelming compared to years passed. Also, it is crazy to see Kendrick Lamar billed so high at all of these festivals, but we like it.
