LYRICISM 101: STR8 UP HIP-HOP PAYS TRIBUTE TO NOTORIOUS B.I.G

Lyrics cannot be divorced from hip
hop, which is why all time hip hop 



artistes like the late American
rapper, Christopher Wallace, best known 

as The Notorious B.I.G laid
emphasis on their lyrical style.




He had been described as possibly
the most skilful ever on the mic with 

lyrical topics and themes described
as a mixture of autobiographical 

details about crime and violence
with emotional honesty.








Thus the March edition of Str8 Up
Hip Hop to be hosted by Andre Blaze 

and tagged Lyricism 101, will be a
platform to appreciate lyrics in hip 

hop.Cool DJ Jimmy Jatt will hold
down a definitive B.I.G tribute and a 

special preview session from
Modenine’s Alphabetical Order.

Saturday, March 28, 2013 with

emcee battle sessions as well as 

graffiti art by Uprizn.




There will also be performances by

of steel. Red carpet for the event
