Zune will organize some Barbecue hip-hop events, featuring Common, Mos Def, Clipse, Lupe Fiasco, Cham, David Banner, UGK, Large Professor, Collie Budz, E-40 and Joel Ortiz in Los Angeles, Chicago and New York. More artists which haven't been announced yet may participate in these concerts...
Invitations will be sent to fans from the Zune and hip-hop communities, and more information can be found on Zune.net closer to the event dates.
"'Live at the BBQ' is helping to bring hip-hop back to a golden age where records were produced and iconic artists rose directly out of their local communities," said Bun B. "It's a chance to put singles, ring tones, and industry hype aside and just get a bunch of our friends together for some great music and BBQ - Let's eat."
The dates of the events are:
Los Angeles, CA (July 12)
Chicago, IL (22) (EDIT: The Chicago event was originally scheduled for the July 21)
New York, NY (August 4)
We still don't know if these events will include the Zune Pass "all you can eat" concept!
EDIT: Yes they do
