“Blows” cuz of the wind, you know, Windy City and all… Not “blows” cuz they’re garbage. Though we don’t know that really. But we can find out! The Primemeridian: Chicago Hip-Hop in NYC gusts (lol) into Harlem on Wednesday, October 21 at The Shrine. Lineup includes The Primeridian, Upstate Weight, Azzie, A.D. Skolar & JC, Kalae, Division X, P.O., and Rahsheed Chappell, people we’ve mainly never heard of, but we do know Chi-town gets down with theirs, so we’re kinda interested in what they’re bringing.
We just checked Primeridian’s site. First song, first impression, smooth jazzy production, good flow.. We like. Bring it on Chi!
