Mark your calendar: On Labor Day weekend, 8Ball & MJG, the legendary Tennessee ‘hood rap aficionados, are set rock Casselmans on Sunday, September 4, with cast of locals that includes Fresh Breath Committee, Young Doe, Rockie, Hynpautic, King Teff and Johnny Rocket.
8Ball & MJG have been staples in the southern underground since 1992 and have built a solid reputation with the authentic ‘hood tales delivered with a slow dragging southern drawl. Last year, the duo joined the Grand Hustle Records roster, and its acclaimed label debut, Ten Toes Down, reached #36 on the Billboard charts.
