| Doin’ it in the Park with Congo Groove and Blitz |
|
If you’re near Amsterdam, the Netherlands on saturday July 31st, you’re in for a treat. The second edition of Doin’ it in the Park, the Africanhiphop.com open-air park jam, promises to be even better than last year’s edition. With an all-star line-up and confirmation of many of our friends to attend, we highly recommend you to block this evening in your agenda and join the party in Tolhuistuin, Amsterdam’s cozy ‘secret garden’ on the hottest day of summer. Blitz the Ambassador (Ghana/USA) with his full live band, and Congo Groove, a collective made up of Fredy Massamba (known from Zap Mama, Tambours de Brazza, Congo Brazzaville), Pitcho (Congolese born emcee in Belgium), Lexxus Legal (PNB, Congo Kinshasa) and dj Aral. From the African diaspora in the Netherlands, Pan Afrikanz, Vieira and Geoffy G will perform along with more names to be confirmed. Dj Threesixty (African hip hop radio) plays the final hour of African club music. The evening kicks off with the opening of an exhibition opening by visual artist Kevin Dalton-Johnson (UK/Jamaica). Additions to the program will be announced here, or join us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/africanhiphopdotcom. The evening starts at 6PM and ends at midnight, so come early!
