1.Seun Kuti at the Cedar Cultural Center

This will probably crack my All Time favorite shows list. Incredible.

2. Shabazz Palacesat the Whole Music Club (Review / Photos)

I figured with the bad sound and poor lighting this wouldn’t be a terrific show but I was absolutely dead wrong.

3. Andrew WK at First Avenue (Photos)

It’s fun to party

4. Soundset (Review / Photos 1 2)

Rae and Ghost, Big KRIT, Danny Brown, the list goes on. My only regret is that they didn’t get Killer Mike

5. Heliotrope (Coverage)

I was sick for most of this but as usual, what I did make it to was amazing
