This is the man who says what we should all be thinking about. His goal in life is to shake people’s complacency and get to act on their beliefs; while at the same time, reaffirming human dignity and love.Tribal Raine, - is most often described as “dynamite wrapped in flowers†– This lady delivers action provoking thoughts with eloquence and grace. She can be funny, cuddly, abrasive, or startling; but is always on the cutting edge. She has several books to her credit.The Dubber – our singer, guitarist. – His acoustic blend is his unique style. – It is a little reggae, little hip hop, little R&B, all on point. Another Def Jam poet. His sophomore album is being released on this tour.Sheem Da One MC – This gentleman rocks the mic; again, part hip hop, part spoken word – all designed to raise your awareness and have fun.Amin – Every tour has one – the cuddly teddy bear you just want to take home so it can sing to you every day. This wonderful performer is ours. We will share him while we are in town, but we have to take him with us. His set is a soothing mix of spoken word and R&B. This is where you get to melt in your seat or maybe dance along.Money Bag Boyz – This group is straight out of Chicago and are mostly hip hop. But they are the clean cut ones that parents want their children to groove to. College students themselves, they bring a fresh look to this industry.Proceeds will benefit 3D Confidence Inc. 3D creates and facilitates programs based on providing special events that allows the youth an opportunity to gain social and business skills while in turn building self-esteem and confidence.
