Events | Trillectro: Hip Hop + Electronic Music Festival
Posted by admin on August 12, 2013
One of the most anticipated events of the entire summer in the DMV has to be the Trillectro Music Festival. Going in to its second annual year, Trillectro has reassembled a killer lineup of the hottest names across EDM and hip-hop. Including Wale, A$AP Ferg, Carnage, Nadastrom, King Chip, and more (full lineup here) this day is guaranteed to be a never ending party.
Trillectro is taking place this Saturday, August the 17th on the Washington, D.C. Half Street Fairgrounds. Tickets are only $39, and can be purchased here. So, grab your ticket and get down to the Half Street Fairgrounds to watch cultures converge in a music-filled day of EDM and hip-hop.
If my words haven’t hyped you up enough, perhaps checking out the insane recap video from last year’s festival, will.
Hip-Hop | A$AP Ferg – Shabba (ft. A$AP Rocky)

A$AP Ferg, who? Isn’t he that guy with that one really hoodrat “Work” song? Why yes, yes he is. Although, it appears that Ferg is no longer the one-hit trap star that most of us thought he was. Drafting the support of A$AP collective member A$AP Rocky, Ferg delivers yet another banger to blast throughout your suburban towns and private school parking lots.
“Shabba” is a single off of the so-aptly-titled mixtape, Trap Lord. I’ll have to deduct points for the originality of the mixtape name, but I believe Darold Ferguson Jr. (yes, that is his birth-name) has truly earned his “lord” label as he was no stranger to the vicious streets of Harlem while growing up.
If you can get past the fifteen seconds of “uhhh”‘s at the start of “Shabba”, you are in for a real treat. Check back in on August 20th for the full A$AP Ferg mixtape.
