Brighton Rocks

It seems as if BRIGHTON is the place to be this weekend. In fact BRIGHTON's music scene has always been super dope - many times I have chosen to see my favourite Hip Hop acts perform in BRIGHTON rather than the big smoke, as the "good times" vibe always seems to be much stronger on the south coast. So big up to BRIGHTON for always being a fun place to be and for giving LONDON a run for it's money.
This weekend the seaside town
sees not only KRS ONE and SUPERNATURAL performing at the CONCORDE II night club on Friday, but also a slamming instalment of the VINYL VETERANS night on Saturday, this time featuring DJ FORMAT. Now BRIGHTON is his home town, so you know FORMAT will be on home ground and rocking shit lovely, and he plans to drop a set of rap 45s similar to the CLASSIC MATERIAL night in East London. But with the added bonus of MR KRUM, MAC MCRAW, BOBBY BOUCHER, MATT THE HAT, SCRATCHY MUFFIN and ROB LIFE on deck duties. If you missed the FORMAT gig in LONDON then there is no excuse to miss this one.


Here's some BLASTMASTER KRS to get you in the mood...

Brighton most certainly rocks when it comes to the Live Hip Hop Scene, I remember back in 2006 When KRS came to the Event II and was supported by Braintax and Mystro - I have never been to a more rowdy but good natured show. Everyone was high on the Boom Bap as KRS rolled out classic after classic a few feet from where were standing! Up there with the best ever gigs I've been too, no doubt it will be the same on Friday as the concorde II is one of the livest, grimiest venues in Brighton!
