A3C-2015

I haven’t been to A3C – or even Atlanta – in several years. To be honest, the Big Peach has always marched to the beat of its own drummer in a way that’s just too… laid-back for my current palate. But I may break that hiatus this October when the 2015 installment of the A3C Festival & Conference returns. Throughout the next few months the number of musicians performing or attending there – which will be in the hundreds – will be announced, and in the first wave the organizers have announced many of the heavy hitters already.

Going down October 7-11, the first set of confirmed artists for the 11th annual A3C Festival & Conference are:

* De La Soul
* Rakim
* Cam’ron
* Dame Dash
* Just Blaze
* Curren$y & Jet Life
* Jean Grae
* Cyhi the Prynce
* Pharoahe Monch
* Soulection Executive Team
* PNB Rock
* The Difference Machine
* Kool Keith

From that minor list alone I see at least four acts I’d like to see live, and I don’t really frequent rap shows that much at all.

Oh, and a #DopeHouseA3C party? Maybe…
