Black Liquid: Richmond Hip Hop Goes Hard To Get Warped???

by | Apr 16, 2011 | MUSIC

Ayo Homie, you ain’t heard? Black Liquid might be the hardest working name attached to Richmond Hip Hop. From opening up for notable acts like Bone Thugs N’ Harmony to headlining at The National, Black holds it down. It don’t stop there neither. His discography is vast and free for download at various locations around the web (like this one). Black reps selflessly for VA hip hop, hosting two weekly radio shows: one Mondays from 11-1am on WDCE (90.1 FM), the other every Saturday from 1-3am on WRIR (97.3 FM). I’ve been privy to the inner workings of the Richmond Hip Hop scene for a minute, and I gotta say, no one utilizes resources to the fullest like Black Liquid.

But if hip hop is the menu, for Black, Richmond is just the appetizer. He’s hoping to see his hard work pay off with a coveted slot on this summer’s Warped Tour, and you can help make it happen. Do not attempt to resist! Vote for Black Liquid and make sure Richmond Hip Hop is properly represented on The Warped Tour this summer.
