Nneka is dope. An artist you should NOT sleep on. I discovered some of her music a few months back and have been anticipating more music from her. J. Period - the name that really needs no introduction in regards to dj'ing and mixtapes. The two have partnered to present "The Madness", which features guest appearances from M-1 (Dead Prez), Jay Electronica, Zumbi (Zion I), Rakaa (Dilated Peoples), Aceyalone (Freestyle Fellowship), General Steele (Boot Camp Clik) and Talib Kweli.
"Nneka presents The Madness (Onye-Ala) as an introduction to her first US album, Concrete Jungle in stores February 2, 2010 on Yo Mama/Decon/Epic. The album is collection of tracks detailing her personal experience growing up in Nigeria, the corruption and beauty found there and the universal themes of love, growth, and seeking the ultimate truths. The Madness (Onye-Ala) is a peek into the life and sounds of Nneka, as well as a tribute to the influence Hip Hop has had on her music.Check this joint out! Enjoy!
Fresh off a featured role in the blockbuster video game, DJ Hero, J.Period presents The Madness (Onye-Ala) as the next chapter in a long line of game-changing mixtapes presented in his unique, storybook style. The acclaimed DJ, Producer & Mixtape King has redefined the mixtape genre with collaborations with the likes of Mary J. Blige, Kanye West, Lauryn Hill, Q-Tip, Talib Kweli, The Roots, Nas, Big Daddy Kane, and others. J.Perid’s most recent work, “The Messengers” (a collection of Fela Kuti, Bob Marley and Bob Dylan remixes featuring K’NAAN), has yielded over 150,000 downloads since its release in September 2009."

THE 5th ANNUAL BROOKLYN HIP-HOP FESTIVAL
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFaandLQT13cc3k7AkBtXshX4rTyCUXjhSCon4euvptOBxW7JEDfJVJifFmeouSZCoF17831xn4OYAJmKqikJaJygokJ1i5nnH9XV_7cdzFHg1ThU6XuEZA8PiCoYulH22nkPLyA/s400/03050015000000937194.jpg)
I received info a few weeks back on Brooklyn Bodega's Twitter page about a festival they're throwing for the 5th year. I visited their website and saw previous performers and this years performers and thought to myself, "For a small $10 donation, you're telling me I can check out all these artists? Where do I sign up?" You can't really beat that. For all the complaining we do about music, here's a great chance to support alot of established artists as well as hardly known / hardly heard of artists. I got my tickets. Excited to go and take lots of pics to blog about. I know it's gonna be a dope event. Check out the performers listed here...
