I’ve been to tons of these festivals put on by GU and Murs and they’re all AMAZING. The guys throw together the best lineups, last summer's RTB was Wu-Tang, Mos Def, Talib, Redman, Dave Chappelle randomly showed up with Talib, DJ Kool, De La Soul, Living Legends, A Tribe Called Quest, Aesop Rock, Del, Immortal Technique, Murs, Visionaries, Planet Asia, Dialated Peoples, et cetera. Even though the RTB07 lineup isn’t complete it’s going to be SO sick.
Also, if you haven’t seen Zion I & the Grouch in
concert, make it a point to see them sooner rather than later.
