FlashbackFriday
Let me paint the picture - So It was the near end Covid lockdown it’s the Holiday Season and we couldn’t hold gatherings or real events. But still needed resources and funding. As a board member I knew I had to try to help out.
So I figured let’s throw a virtual concert that can highlight some dope artists singing Holiday Songs all throughout Norfolk.
Not only was it a vibe every spectator got a front row seat because we aired that thang on YouTube.
The talented held us down on the visuals and had us vibing like we were front row 🎶✨
To all the artists that contributed & collaborated with us to make “Christmas In the City” possible THANK YOU 🙏🏽
We loved rocking out with y’all and raising money for our court involved at risk youth while also highlighting how music brings us all together.
But hey, the love doesn’t have to stop there. If You Missed it? You Can Watch the Entire Show Today. Also if Your feeling like Giving Slide on over and keep those donations coming for . The impact hits every time. https://youtu.be/bE3aP60ZwFY?feature=shared

COMMENT WHO YOU SEE🔥
Rebuilding the Archive.
Bringing back the moments that shaped us.. the was a true labor of LOVE focused on the Community of Producers & Beat Makers and how Hip Hop and certain records shaped their personal sound. With more than 2200 people in attendance from all over the East Coast to connect with us at the the Slover Library - what an honor to be apart of such a beautiful day for Hip Hop.
It couldnt have happened without Daun Hester, , , , and the countless Sponsors and of course the Super Producers and Beat Makers that flew into town just for this day. What a classic moment for VA.. .
Our original IG was hacked, so we’re restoring what matters most. - here’s some reminders from the vault.🔥🎧
