GIL SCOTT-HERON TRIBUTE
Featuring Guest DJ:
DSTRUKT
On May 27, 2011 Gil Scott-Heron left this material world at the age of 62. An embodiment of both Black Power and Black Struggle, the self-proclaimed Bluesologist bore the weight of both identities on his shoulders and relieved its strain through his words. With his musical partners - most famously with Brian Jackson, and most recently with Richard Russell - Gil Scott-Heron created some of the most honest, inspirational, and heart-wrenching soul music the world will ever hear.
Join us in welcoming one of the most exciting and creative DJ’s in the community, DJ Dstrukt, whose mixes, which are both forward thinking AND respectful of the foundation, have been featured on the World Famous Wake Up Show. His tribute set to Gil Scott-Heron should not be missed.
