Stand Up! the show is tomorrow. spread the WORD! · by Rafi Kam
If you’re anywhere near NYC, you have no excuse not to be there, tomorrow at 9pm at Pianos on Ludlow St.
Let me remind you what’s going on here. Two hip-hop blogs (Oh Word and Sit Down Stand Up) have put together a showcase for budding underground rappers. Internets Celebrities will be hosting.
For a $9 ticket you will be seeing sets from 4 underground MC’s who can rhyme their ass off, a group freestyle cipher onstage and a special guest appearance that will blow your mind.
You get more than your money’s worth, we promise. I don’t know how to make this any clearer: if you miss this event, you’re probably an asshole.
Don’t be an asshole. Buy tickets now.

Said it before and I’ll say it again: gutted not to be there.
