Our #GreenRoom Mixtape Will Drop Next Week

April 11, 2012 Front Page No Comments

We’re partnering with our friends at Green For All to bring you the hottest spring mixtape just in time for 4/20.

This is why, in honor of Earth Day, we are bringing you The Green Room Mixtape hosted by DJ Willie Shakes, featuring some of today’s hottest hip-hop acts including Kendrick Lamar, BJ the Chicago Kid, Dee-1, Rebel Diaz, BRWN BFLO and many more, including Green For All’s Markese Bryant. The music represents communities from across the U.S., but they all share one thing…the music is slappin!

Why the Green Room? Because the Green Room is what every community needs to thrive. The Green Room stands for city parks in place of concrete, local grocery chains providing real food for communities, the space for all people to breathe, live, and build community. And the Green Room is where we invest in new artists and visionaries so they can do their thing!

So watch out for The Green Room Mixtape coming soon!
