It's baaaaack! For those of you who didn't experience the all-day mega event that was the 1st annual Roots Picnic held in Philly last year, then you missed a hot ass show. No, it was literally hot, we're talking about a 10-hour show in 100 degree heat, it doesn't get any hotter. Last year's line-up featured The Cool Kids, J*Davey, and Gnarls Barkley, and The Legendary Roots Crew themselves. This year, The Roots will still be on board, along with TV On The Radio, Asher Roth, Kid Cudi (guess this means he ain't retiring :), rap legends and political pioneers, Public Enemy, and fellow Philly Alum, Santigold (note the name change: Santogold/Santigold, along with others. The show's June 6th and will take place in non-other than the city of Brotherly love. But don't wait until the day of the show to buy your tickets. Don't even wait until this Friday when they go on sale at 10 a.m. Purchase them before then, and there's a $5 pre-sale discount. I'll see you at the show, but I'm buying my tickets today!
