Check ’em out: Barkodz: An Urban Experience features local artists working to honor hip-hop’s past while forging its future, using rhythm and words to address oppression, progression, and political expression. The lineup includes Kush Gang, Keese Allen, Equally Opposite, and more. Lights, sound, stage effects, and a “transport cube” make the event a multi-sensory experience the likes of which the performers guarantee you’ve never seen before.
Friday 6/18, $5-10. 7:30pm, IX Art Park, 522 Second St SE. ixartpark.org.
Free news is good news!
Nearly $1 million a year goes into the work you’re reading—covering local government, spotlighting the arts, and telling the stories no one else does. If you value that, help fund it for $10 a month (or whatever tax-deductible gift you can afford). Save the free word.
