The Mad Decent Block Party is back once again, and hopefully ready to redeem itself after last year’s event in brooklyn was cut short due to an absolutely absurd lightning storm that left everyone stuck in the rain. This year, to make things easier, it’s a paid event, rather than being completely free like previous years. Although there have been many complaints, well, you fuckers have to deal with it because the events were getting packed. That much talent, in a free open space, in this day and age, is just logistically impossible. So open your wallet, throw down some cash, and guarantee your entry into this wild block party – you wont regret it.
This year’s line up in New York City includes Mad Decent head honcho Diplo’s Major Lazer project, Dillon Francis, Flosstradamus, Rockie Fresh, Destructo, Keys N Krates, and DJ Sliink. So, yeah, expect a lot of trap music and then a dance hall throw down by Diplo and the boys the close it all down.
