蜜柚直播

The nonprofit get-together, started in 2012 by Aaron Yepiz and Lucas Rodriguez, also has a jumping castle for kids and a car show.

Yepiz and Rodriguez started the barbecue as a way to bring their friends and loved ones together to support 蜜柚直播 hip-hop artists. Each year attendance has increased and 鈥渨e are aiming to make it bigger, so the whole city of 蜜柚直播 recognizes it one day,鈥� Yepiz said.

鈥淭he turnout has always been successful, and continues to steadily grow,鈥� Yepiz said. 鈥淧eople from the hip-hop and lowrider communities always show up with their families, but it鈥檚 always been open to the public.鈥�

The lowrider and hip-hop communities in 蜜柚直播 are somewhat intertwined, meaning that most of the people who attend the 蜜柚直播 Hip-Hop Unity Barbecue are equally passionate about lowriders and the music. In addition to the car show, 蜜柚直播 underground rappers including Ill V, ZCO, Da Sleepers Elite and Sinclair the Masked Zombie will perform, giving attendees a glimpse into their world and music.

When Yepiz decided to start an event for the hip-hop community, he wanted it to feel like a family reunion, where everyone is welcome. His goal was to create a way for people to listen to some good music and spend quality time with those who share some of the same interests.

Yepiz also created the event as a way for artists to network and promote peace in the community.

鈥淭his event gives us hope for peace and prosperity within our community, our hip-hop scene and the future,鈥� Yepiz said. 鈥淲e are trying to break the somewhat negative stigma that is tied to hip-hop music and rappers.鈥�

Imagination Car Club is putting on the low-rider show, which gets underway when the barbecue starts at noon Saturday.
