The Dope Poet Society in DC
After yesterday's post, I decided to pass along this concert plug for those in the Washington, DC area. If you want to see conscious hip hop in action, check out The Dope Poet Society. You can find out more by visiting www.jlr1.com
Just a quick note to let y'all know that The Dope Poet Society will be doing a crazy series of shows in Washington DC over the next several days surrounding the protests against the IMF and The World Bank.The happenings kick off with a kick ass concert tonight featuring The Dope Poet Society with M-1 of Dead Prez, A-Alikes, Head-Roc and more.
The list of events is posted below.
The new album, PROINTELPRO is in stores across Canada, and with virtually no promotion budget, the album is on the verge of making record breaking sales for an independent Canadian Hip Hop group. If you're down with conscious Hip Hop, make sure you help the movement grow by picking up this album and helping to spread the word about it.Hold tight.
