A3C Recruits “FRKO” & “Sean Fahie” To Bomb Atlanta With Art (Video)
Music Festivals are in full swing this Summer all across the country. Â One of the best Music Festivals that begins in the Fall is the A3C Festival which takes place right here where we reside in Atlanta, GA! Â People ask how A3C has grown so big with it only being ten years in existence? I would say one of the reasons is A3C does a good job of working with people in the Atlanta scene not just rappers but media & sites ( like Jayforce.com) but also visual artists. Â The Atlanta Art scene is close knit and buzzing so I was excited when I saw that FRKO & Sean Fahie were helping to spread the word about A3C. Â Watch as they go around the city with one of the founders of A3C creating original artwork on posters from Old 4th Ward to East Atlanta. Â Save the date October 7th-11th A3C 2015 goes down and of course Jayforce.com & Beatz & Lyrics will be on the scene for sure! Video shot & edited by Marquise Adams.
