DIGIWAXX Presents Hip-Hop Is Green (Vol. 1): SOLAR HEAT And CITYSOL 0
CITYSOL is basically over. Sorry I’m late on this. You can still cop the mixtape though. Link
Produced to coincide with the CITYSOL solar-powered festival occuring JUNE 26 - 29 in New York City (at 23rd Street and the East River - off the FDR), this digital download mixtape features new music from Estelle, John Legend and Andre 3000, Santogold, Tanya Morgan, Talib Kweli and CRAC.
It’s mixed by rising New York DJ sensation GETLIVE and hosted by LYRICIST LOUNGE co-founder and CURRENT TV producer ANT MARSHALL.
It features original cover art by FRESH DAILY of AOK.
It’s not only a classic summer mixtape but a means to bring awareness to CITYSOL and the efforts of the SOLAR 1 organization.
With the energy crisis in full swing and global warming facing us everyday we all must work to get information about solar power as an alternative resource.
This mix is our effort to continue to learn more and then pass along the message.
Plus how many mixtapes you hear sampling RALPH NADER breaking down why solar power is the answer?!
