CONCERTS AND FESTIVALS

Scandinavia has become an oasis for Hip Hop and urban related concerts and festivals lately. In the last year we've had the pleasure of seeing some of the biggest names in Hip Hop live and enjoy some of the best concerts of our lives. But there are so many concerts and festivals poppin up all the time that it's hard to keep up with whats goin on and to decide where to go. So in an attempt to make our lives easyer, I'm writing down a "short" list here. I'm sticking to the Hip Hop, R&B, Reggae, Dancehall and urban acts and even that should take a while. Roskilde for example has around 200 artists total! So "...pay attention and listen real closely how I break this..." concert shit down:
