$5 tix /// All Ages

/// BUGGS THA ROCKA ///

In resistance to commercial gangsta rap, Buggs Tha Rocka performance of shrewd and cultured rhymes maintains golden-era techniques while carving a creative outlet for the succeeding hip-hop generation. Hailed by his peers as a “rapper’s rapper”, Buggs tha Rocka has reinforced underground hip-hop with his eccentric lyricism and versatile flows.

Born Speed Walton III on February 16th, Buggs was raised in a full house of family in Cincinnati, Ohio. He began rapping at age of 6, Buggs credits “Life After Death” by Notorious B.I.G which kept him well intrigued with making a hip hop a career, Buggs’ earliest recordings told stories and demonstrated wordplay with a clever mix of hip hop and rock. Also drawing inspiration from artists such as Andre 3000, Q-Tip, Missy Elliott, Pharrell, and jay-z. Buggs enhanced his skills to exude a smart and stylish sensibility. He ultimately developed a niche for pairing eclectic samples with amusing and conscious rhyme schemes.

/// Trademark Aaron & Aaron Roy///

Trademark Aaron’s rap career started in the high school classroom, passing battle rhymes as notes to other classmates. He didn’t know what to do with his writings until he found hip-hip. Months later he hit his first recording studio and hasn’t missed a beat since writing and recording tracks, performing live, and collaborating with other artists.

Trademark Aaron has an intelligent, honest, and relatable sound that’s accessible for the masses. Spitting solid punch lines, quick whit, and vivid stories depicting his thoughts and feelings of our world and himself. With three albums under his belt: The Sideshow, Make Room, and Prelude To Greatness, he’s proved he’s ready for “His spot under the bright lights.” Making music for the people, “I do this for yall’ as much as I do it for me.” Trademark Aaron carries a positive togetherness attitude on his path to greatness.
