Independent Hip Hop Events Calendar

Avery Marcel Joshua Jones (born October 16, 1992), known by his stage name KOTA The Friend is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, and record producer, born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. He got his stage name from the Disney movie Brother Bear and is actually a Native American word “Koda” meaning friend.

Kota most recently released his No Rap on Sunday album, which include singles featuring Big Sean and Fivio Foreign. Besides his No Rap on Sunday release, Kota has released a number of albums and EPs. In 2024 he released Once in a Blue Moon, an album collaboration with Statik Selektah, and in the same year he released Lyrics to Go 5, the 5h installment of his popular Lyrics to Go series.

Kota has remained 100% independent throughout his career—turning down 3 major record labels; instead, creating his own label and apparel brand, FLTBYS (Flight Boys). He frequently cites a do-it-yourself mentality, such as filming his own music videos, recording within a home setup, and producing most of his discography. His mentality was fueled by a desire for freedom and to avoid the sense of musical confinement.

Kota’s music has been featured in movies on Netflix, Amazon Prime, and other streaming platforms.

Kota the Friend cited Jay-Z, Nas, Kid Cudi, Bob Dylan, The Beatles and Pharrell as some of his influences in music.

Landon Wordswell is a 33 year old Atlanta, GA resident by way of the St. Louis area and Santa Fe, NM. Those cities combined have influenced and crafted the emcee’s tenacity, perspective, and insight. Landon’s stage performance & delivery have been praised on tours both nationally & internationally for it’s captivating crowd appeal. Wordswell specializes in utilizing intricate rhyme schemes often being coupled with tightly knitted personal lyrics and a bold truth. 
 The Indianapolis, IN born emcee was immediately moved to Brooklyn, IL (St Louis Area) where his single mother taught him honor, resilience, and hustle on a day to day basis by simply living as an example of it. Seeing these qualities pay off led to his family relocating to a much safer, well established area in his late childhood. Constant growth can be heard from his first solo effort, “The Mourning After Pill”, to his forthcoming, “New Flexico”. 
 Along with touring the United States with his past tour partner, Gift of Gab (Blackalicious), he has also completed a full European tour with the Artifacts and and national tour with the very legendary Talib Kweli in 2018. Landon Wordswell has also performed and toured alongside greats such as Mos Def, The Game, Slum Village, Warren G, Mobb Deep, Binary Star, Blackalicious, Lyrics Born, Skyzoo, Black Milk, Zion I, Raekwon (Wu-Tang), Jeru The Damaja, Guilty Simpson, Sir Mix-A-Lot, Devin The Dude, Aceyalone, Freestyle Fellowship & many, many more!

Chef the Chef is a Connecticut-based hip-hop artist, producer, and performer known for blending self-produced beats with honest lyrics and high-energy live performances. Bringing a unique sound and authentic storytelling to every stage, Chef the Chef creates music that connects with audiences through real-life experiences, creativity, and passion for the craft.

For nearly a decade as a duo, and longer still as solo artists, Armand Hammer have left a palpable mark on modern rap and hip-hop. At turns both sharp-witted and soul-crushing, their lyrics unspool threads of socio-political, historical, and philosophical import with a potent blend of incisive critique, gallows humor, and narrative élan. 

Mercy is the first Armand Hammer album since 2023’s We Buy Diabetic Test Strips, a project that The Observer (UK) described as “an exceptional record that deserves your time and headphones” and The Line Of Best Fit deemed “their headiest and most impressive work thus far.” On 2021’s Haram, their first with The Alchemist, the duo “drag postcolonial wounds onto the examination table” (Pitchfork). Beats Per Minute called it “a tremendous success.” 

Earlier this year, billy woods released GOLLIWOG, ““a densely poetic, totally masterful tour de force” (Rolling Stone) and “one of 2025’s truly essential albums” (The FADER). Meanwhile, ELUCID’s “enthralling” (MOJO) 2024 album REVELATOR was described by Pitchfork as “soul food for those who know a better world is possible if we’re willing to fight for it.” The New York Times, in naming REVELATOR one of their Best Albums Of 2024, called it “a dense, overdriven, fiercely abrasive album that cranks up the tradition of Public Enemy’s Bomb Squad productions for 21st-century impact.”

The Black Azz Music Festival is a signature Saturday-night experience within Black Azz Camping’s 3rd Annual Campout, taking place October 10, 2026, from 7–11 PM at Black Roots Farm in Winchester, Kentucky. The festival creates a culturally affirming outdoor stage for emerging and independent Hip-Hop and R&B artists to perform, connect with new audiences, and gain exposure through the Black Azz Camping network.

More than a concert, the festival brings together Black music, culture, community, and nature. The evening is designed to flow from Hip-Hop into R&B, highlighting selected artists while giving campers and festival-only guests a unique live-music experience on Black-owned farmland. It reflects Black Azz Camping’s larger mission of creating outdoor spaces rooted in its three core values: Community, Culture, and Connection.

Mach-Hommy (born June 21) is an enigmatic Haitian-American emcee from Newark, New Jersey. Although Mach began rapping at the age of thirteen, freestyling over Raekwon’s “Verbal Intercourse,” his earliest known work can be found on the 2004 mixtape titled Goon Grizzle. Through his early career, Mach found the music recording progress to be an “unhealthy” environment and thought of going into the filmmaking industry instead, but thanks to the encouragement of longtime friend Westside Gunn, he returned to rapping in the early 2010s. Almost a decade later in 2013, he released a handful of EPs and a debut studio album titled F.Y.I., the project includes production from frequent collaborator August Fanon and originally surfaced on Soundcloud. F.Y.I is available on his website in an updated Digitally Remastered format. In recent years, Mach infamously began to self-release his music, first on Instagram and later on Bandcamp, for hundreds of dollars per physical copy. His 2016 release H.B.O. (Haitian Body Odor), his first under the Griselda Records imprint, was made available with the limited release of 187 physical CD’s, each sold for $300 through Instagram, but has since made public to streaming platforms years later. He has frequently collaborated with producers Earl Sweatshirt, Knxwledge, The Alchemist, Camoflauge Monk, SadhuGold and August Fanon and rappers such as Tha God Fahim, JuJu Gotti, and many more. Mach-Hommy would soon earn the attention to the mainstream media thanks to the release of his May 2021 album, Pray for Haiti, his second release under the Griselda imprint. The album saw a commercial success, with artists such as Drake catching the attention of the artist. From there, Hommy has since gained a cult following as a result to his work ethic and elusiveness and would continue to release a slew of projects, either released through all platforms and or released through his website for hundreds or thousands of dollars. In October 2019, Mach and fellow collaborator Your Old Droog had their lyrics removed from Genius after sending them a DMCA notice. When reached out from Pitchfork, Mach-Hommy gave them a cryptic response stating: “The game is to be sold to you; not told to you.” Two years later, through an October 2022 interview Rolling Stone, Mach-Hommy responds to a question about why his lyrics (in general) aren’t on Genius: I’m a literary artist. Before we start to describe what kind, whether I’m a giant or a dwarf or whatever the fuck, I’m a literary artist and I’m a writer, number one. Before it ever becomes a sound, number one. And so that in and of itself is a work of art, and that’s published writing. Those words, they’re mine. For instance, a writer writes a book. Ernest Hemingway writes a book. Everyone loves it. It’s ill. Then they adapt it as a movie. Then the movie’s out, and some niggas just take the book and are like, “Yo, free book. Free book.” And not only “free book,” but a free book, and then monetizing it.

JPEGMAFIA (Barrington DeVaughn Hendricks, “Peggy”) is a multi-talented experimental rapper, producer, performer and leader in the underground rap scene. After producing six tracks on Kanye West’s latest album and a very successful 2023 with “SCARING THE HOES!” JPEGMAFIA returns with a new album – title TBD – and headline tour named LAY DOWN MY LIFE.

This run follows his very successful co-headline tour alongside Danny Brown for their collaborative album “SCARING THE HOES!” which included sold-out shows nationwide including landmark venues like The Hollywood Palladium. The album debuted at number 84 on the Billboard 200 and entered at position 39 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, while also charting in six other countries including Canada and the UK. In recent years, JPEGMAFIA has released critically acclaimed projects such as “Veteran” (2018), “All My Heroes Are Cornballs” (2019), and “LP!” (2021) – with praise from The Guardian, XXL, Office Mag, Complex, and many more.

JPEGMAFIA’s other recent performances include Primavera Sound, Pitchfork Music Festival, CDMX, Listen Out, and more, with upcoming festivals including Portola and Outbreak Fest on the horizon. 

You’ve seen Salem by daylight — this is what happens after dark. Hidden beyond the shelves of The Lost Library, an intimate Black Box theater comes alive for one night with Bars After Dark, an immersive Halloween-season rap showcase in the heart of downtown Salem.

Step inside, leave the October crowds behind, and drop into an underground room of live music, heavy beats, eerie projections and some of the area’s rising hip-hop talent. Performers take the mic throughout the night while visuals wrap the whole room — less a concert than a hidden Salem nightlife experience built for the season.

Presented by Bars Over Bars and The Lost Library. Doors 7 PM, music 7:30 PM, done by 10 PM. One night. One hidden room. Nothing but bars.

Avery Marcel Joshua Jones (born October 16, 1992), known by his stage name KOTA The Friend is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, and record producer, born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. He got his stage name from the Disney movie Brother Bear and is actually a Native American word “Koda” meaning friend.

Kota most recently released his No Rap on Sunday album, which include singles featuring Big Sean and Fivio Foreign. Besides his No Rap on Sunday release, Kota  has released a number of albums and EPs. In 2024 he released Once in a Blue Moon, an album collaboration with Statik Selektah, and in the same year he released Lyrics to Go 5, the 5h installment of his popular Lyrics to Go series.

Kota is a trained musician as well. He started playing the trumpet in the 4th grade, in a Brooklyn public school. He was able to get accepted into music programs in middle school, high school, and college, as a trumpet player. After Kota left college he started his music career, as a writer and performer.

Kota the Friend released his debut mixtape, Palm Tree Liquor in 2016, followed by his second mixtape Paloma Beach in 2017.

In 2018, he released his third mixtape, the lengthier Anything, with 2019 marking the release of his first independent studio album, FOTO, followed by the Lyrics to GO, Vol. 1 compilation in January 2020 and then his second studio album, EVERYTHING, in late May of the same year. Kota then went on to release Lyrics to GO, Vol.2 in January 2021 and the collaborative project To Kill A Sunrise with Statik Selektah later in March. Lyrics to GO, Vol.3 was surprise-released in January 2022, with Kota’s third studio album, MEMO, following in July of that year. Kota the Friend has spent the last couple years of his life traveling the world.

Kota has remained 100% independent  throughout his career—turning down 3 major record labels; instead, creating his own label and apparel brand, FLTBYS (Flight Boys). He frequently cites a do-it-yourself mentality, such as filming his own music videos, recording within a home setup, and producing most of his discography. His mentality was fueled by a desire for freedom and to avoid the sense of musical confinement.

Kota’s music has been featured in movies on Netflix, Amazon Prime, and other streaming platforms.

Brooklyn rapper, producer and fiercely independent artist KOTA The Friend brings the Just Happy To Be Here Tour to Tacoma for a night built around smooth beats, thoughtful bars and songs that feel more like conversations with an old friend than performances from a distant stage.

KOTA has created his own lane by keeping things personal—rapping about ambition, fatherhood, relationships, mental health, independence and learning how to appreciate the life happening right in front of you. His laid-back delivery and warm, jazz-tinted production make the music easy to live with, but the honesty underneath it is what keeps people coming back.

Expect fan favorites like “Colorado,” “Long Beach,” “Summerhouse,” “Chicago Diner” and “B.Q.E.”, alongside music from the next chapter of an artist who has always moved at his own pace and on his own terms.

Come through, bring somebody you care about and spend an evening celebrating good music, real life and the simple fact that sometimes it feels pretty damn good just to be here.

Grab your tickets and meet us at Airport Tavern Music Hall on October 22.

Clock-Out Lounge & Earshot Jazz Present:

Bobbyy AKAI SOLO (Co-Headline) 

Stas Thee Boss 

Dero 

Friday Oct. 23rd

9PM doors 21  

$18adv/ $20 dos 

BOBBYY – 

Bobbyy is an LA-based drummer/producer with a hard-hitting yet emotional musical footprint, from the DIY scene in Seattle to expanded influences within LA’s producer community. Bobbyy’s live interpretations of jazz, electronic music, and hip-hop are a testament to his experimental and exploratory nature. Equipped with a sampler-fitted drum kit and an ensemble of rotating juggernaut instrumentalists, his performances transport you to new worlds that feel more like club-hopping between smoky jazz venues and after-hours dance floors than your typical producer’s showcase. Bobbyy’s sophomore album TACKYY is set to release in October 2026 on Pink Siifu’s Dynamite Hill label, and features Salami Rose Joe Louis, Demae, Sam Gendel, AKAI SOLO, Pink Siifu, Qur’an Shaheed, Telemakus, Miguel Atwood-Ferguson, Javier Santiago, and more.

AKAI – 

NYC trailblazer AKAI SOLO has been known for his relentless output since 2018. Notable releases include, but are not limited to, Black Sand with Pink Siifu, Mad Space with fellow Tase Grip member iblss, and True Sky with Navy Blue. The Brooklyn native has also released two projects on Backwoodz Studioz, Body Feeling and Spirit Roaming. With such a refreshing and interesting approach to the art form, it is easy to see why fellow heavy hitters such as Madlib, Alchemist, Earl Sweatshirt, and billy woods champion him so strongly. Fresh off an EU tour and three incredible albums in the last two years, AKAI has no intention of letting up.

STAS THEE BOSS –  

Born on Hilltop in Tacoma, but raised in the Southend of Seattle, Stasia represents her home through and through. After learning all the lyrics to Snoop Dogg’s “Gin and Juice” at the age of 8, she realized that a career in hip-hop was her destiny. She is formerly one half of the psychedelic-space-rap-jazz duo THEESatisfaction, with whom she produced, wrote, and performed. She signed with Sub Pop Records in 2011 and released two albums. She was able to spread her love of music to many countries like France, the UK, Australia, China, Portugal, and Iceland. She is a member of the Black Constellation, along with Shabazz Palaces, Maikoiyo Alley-Barnes, Nicholas Galanin, Nep Sidhu, and Erik Blood. She currently resides in Seattle and continues performing music as a solo artist and DJing at Havana Social and local parties.

DERO – 

DERO (often known creatively as “The Sunflower Samurai”) is an emerging independent hip-hop artist, rapper, and visual creator based out of Seattle. He is recognized for his contributions to the Pacific Northwest’s underground rap scene, characterized by a blend of reflective lyricism, soulful production partnerships, and active arts advocacy.

PROF “GOOD TIME BOY” TOUR w/ GRIEVES, NORMAN SANN, KHANTRAST, & WILLIE WONKA live in ST PETE

Deuterman Productions Presents: PROF

Support: GRIEVES

NORMAN SANN

KHANTRAST

WILLIE WONKA

PROF

With lyrical skill matched only by his raucous live shows, Prof has cemented his place on the national stage. Hailing from Minneapolis, Minnesota, Prof has perfected the art of combining blue collar hard work and unimpeachable content while never taking himself too seriously. His eight studio album, GOOD TIME BOY, due out on his own imprint Stophouse Music Group on June 26th, 2026, is poised to let the world at large in on a secret that music fans already know, Prof is a force to be reckoned with. His last LP ‘Horse’ shocked pundits and the industry alike with an amazing run through the charts and streaming platforms. Released in April of 2023, Horse reached a career-high on the Billboard charts ranking as the #2 Current Rap Album, #1 Heatseekers Album, #1 Emerging Artist Album, #8 Top Billboard Album, and #17 Independent Album the week of its release.GOOD TIME BOY is the culmination of Prof’s personal Rocky training montage, but you can’t call it a comeback, because Prof’s numbers have only ever gone up. GOOD TIME BOY is a powerful record, showcasing his singular drive and the weirdness of real life that has propelled Prof to the pinnacle of the independent rap music world, bringing his legions of “Gampos”, as his fans are affectionately known, alongside him. GOOD TIME BOYS’s 16 tracks include a heavyweight cast of features. From T-Pain’s infectious contribution on “Jewelry Duty”, to That Mexican OT & 2 Chainz gracing “Big Dog”, to a brilliant appearance from Bay area legend E-40 on “Brrrr” – Prof’s contemporaries have clearly noticed the ever growing Gampo movement bursting out of the Twin Cities. Pete & Bas, JonRay, & Sauce Walka also appear on the album, which was produced by Prof alongside a small cadre of close collaborators. Prof will follow up the release of GOOD TIME BOY with a 12 city headline tour fall 2026. The tour hits marquee live music venues like The Armory in Minneapolis, Janus Live in St. Petersburg, and the Factory in St. Louis. Riding life sized carpets over his massive crowds and leaving it all on the stage, Prof’s live shows have always been more than a concert, they are an experience. As the audiences grow and his production evolves, Prof has moved from survival mode to takeover mode, and one thing is for sure, Prof thrives on the biggest stages.

GRIEVES

With two decades of experience in the music industry, Seattle’s own Grieves has sculpted a remarkable path as an independent artist. Originally signing with Rhymesayers in 2009, Grieves toured globally, sharing the stage with a plethora of influential artists such as Atmosphere, Prof, Macklemore, T-Pain, Watsky, Brother Ali, Evidence, Chris Webby, Rittz, People Under The Stairs, Pepper, Bad Fish, and many more. Grieves’ extensive catalog has garnered hundreds of millions of plays, landing him at the coveted #1 spot on the Billboard Heatseekers chart and #57 on the top 200. Along the way, his musical journey has caught the eye of major publications like Pitchfork, Playboy, and even your mom’s diary. Transitioning to a new chapter in his career, Grieves now self-releases his music under his label, “Storm Watch Record Club.” Always passionate about his craft, he is currently in the studio recording his next album, which promises to be another milestone in his storied career. In Feb 2023 Grieves teamed up with his long time friend Mouse Powell and made an action packed EP called WHY NOT? Listen now!

NORMAN SANN

Rapper, songwriter, producer, and audio engineer Norman Sann delivers high-tier lyricism backed by serious digital momentum. With a catalog of 190 songs and millions of global streams, he has built a dedicated community of 1.6M fans without spending a penny on digital ads or traditional marketing—relying solely on consistently posting and doing interactive livestreams recording music. Sann is a multi-dimensional artist pushing the boundaries of the modern rap game.

KHANTRAST

Since breaking out with his viral hit “Landed in Brooklyn,” now boasting nearly 100M streams across platforms, Khantrast has emerged as one of NYC’s most talked-about rising artists. Blending gritty New York drill energy with global, internet-driven influences, he’s carved out a distinct sound that cuts through the noise of the new wave. With 500M total streams and nearly 2M monthly listeners, Khantrast has grown far beyond a viral moment—building a loyal, global fanbase and sustained momentum across releases. His rise has been fueled by headline tours and collaborations with artists like Kyle Richh, further cementing his place in New York’s next generation. With an undeniable online presence, Khantrast continues to prove he’s not just part of the wave—he’s helping define it.

WILLIE WONKA

Willie Wonka is the official DJ for the Minneapolis-based rapper Prof. Known for his high-energy stage presence and creative mixing skills, Wonka has played an integral role in Prof’s live shows, adding a unique spark to performances with his dynamic sound choices and crowd interaction. He has supported Prof on numerous tours across the country, helping set the mood with an eclectic blend of hip-hop, funk, and classic party tracks. Willie Wonka is recognized not only for his technical skills behind the turntables but also for his charismatic personality, making him a fan favorite at Prof’s energetic concerts. He recently has released instrumental albums and collaborative music on all DSP’s.

A Free Citywide Cultural Festival in Honor of Onyx & Hope

RSVP

Friday, October 30, 2026 | Free Entry | All Ages

Motorco joins All Onyx World as one of eight venues across Durham for the inaugural year of a citywide celebration created in honor of Onyx Nyne Williams, son of hometown hero Jooselord. All Onyx World turns one family’s love for one child into a free, multi-location festival — one city, one day, every genre, all for Onyx.

At Motorco, expect a lineup pulled from North Carolina’s deep bench of local talent, part of the 30 artists performing across the festival. Come through for the music, stay for the reason we’re all here: community, love, and remembrance, built into something people can actually be part of.

All Onyx World is free to attend and open to all ages. Proceeds and partner support go toward the Grief Museum, family programming, artist fees, and Onyx Is Hope Foundation.

HOPE • LOVE • COMMUNITY • TOGETHERNESS
