The second installment of the Brooklyn Shuffle addresses so called "black" music by abandoning all perceive attachments to the bling bling era.  This year's Brooklyn Shuffle threads together multi-genre artists from rop (rap/rock) to minimalist acoustic sounds to electro-hip hop -- producing a vivid pattern that will set the trend of what clever young people will be listening to tomorrow.
 
Featuring:
MIKE LADD An exclusive performance by the analog-enthusiast and his new live band.

GREY REVEREND  The acoustic leader in a landscape of maladjusted souls.

NO SURRENDER The electro/punk/rap crew that has emerged from the ashes of the avant-garde hip-hop scene and has led the way in the current Afropunk movement. 
 
THE JUGGS These southern-smothered funkateers bring a marriage of Muddy Waters and Bad Brains to the stage, complete with screaming guitar solos and soulful mid-song sermons.

DJ MYLES and DJ LINDSEY The flyest husband and wife collective around who lay down the best tracks of Golden Age hip hop.
