Homegrown Hip-Hop Festival (Madison, WI)

Starting tomorrow and lasting throughout the weekend, the University of Wisconsin - Madison is hosting the second annual Homegrown Hip-Hop Festival. If you read this blog and are going to be around campus this weekend, I suggest you hit it up. Here's the lineup:
Thursday, November 6
Student Union - Great Hall, 7PM - Midnight
Doomtree (Headliner)
I Self Devine
Big Quarters
Muja Messiah
Chosen Few
Defcee

Friday, November 7
Tripp Commons, 8PM - 11PM
OMAI presents Just Bust A Move! Open Mic Night

Saturday, November 8
Student Union - Great Hall, 6PM - Midnight
Kid Sister (Headliner)
Yea Big & Kid Static
Tru Ruts Crew
Fall Guys
Krukid
Kid Cut Up
Quest McCody
Hyder Ali
As you can see, there will be plenty of dope artists from Minneapolis, Chicago, and various other areas throughout the Midwest. Midwest hip-hop is holding it down right now! I'll likely be there both nights, so be on the lookout for some foolish-looking college undergrad with a camera. It might be me.

For further information, check out the article that I wrote for the Badger Herald on the festival:
