Sa-Roc & Rah Digga Co-Headlining Tour

Sa-Roc and Rah Digga are going on tour together as co-headliners. The tour takes place later in the summer and tickets will go on sale this Friday. Sa-Roc released the deluxe version of her critically acclaimed Sharecropper’s Daughter album in 2021. The album was recognized for her lyricism and she also had a duet with late hip-hop enigma MF Doom. Her presence continues to grow and she did a Tiny Desk concert not long after the release of the album. Digga’s been busy these days as one of the hosts of rapper Lord Jamar’s Yanadameen Godcast. 

Red Hot Tribute To Sun Ra

Red Hot has put together its first tribute to Sun Ra which is coming out Friday, May 26th. Red Hot + Ra: Nuclear War celebrates the work of the late jazz innovator with music from Georgia Anne Muldrow, Irreversible Entanglements, Angel Bat Dawid and Malcolm Jiayne Tree-o. They cover and reinterpret Sun Ra’s 1981 “Nuclear War” single which was about his protest of the Three Mile Island nuclear plant meltdown where he and his Arkestra lived. The album is the first of more to come over the next two years focused on Sun Ra’s vision. Red Hot + Ra can be pre-ordered and Georgia Anne Muldrow’s “Juke Blues” featuring Joseph Leimburg is streaming now. Red Hot has been bringing awareness to A.I.D.S and LGBTQ issues with musical compilations since 1990. Last year they released Red Hot & Riot: A Tribute To Fela Kuti with music from D'Angelo, Niles Rodgers and more.
