Paid Dues Festival 6/4 @ Nokia Theater

As you may have heard, the annual Paid Dues Hip-Hop Festival will be touching down in the Big Apple next week at the Nokia Theater in Times Square. Scheduled to perform are Rakim, The GZA, Buckshot (Boot Camp Clik), Blackalicious, Murs & 9th Wonder, Supernatural and Scratch, Kidz in the Hall, and Yak Ballz.
I have 5 pairs of tickets to give away to the first five readers who email me the correct answer to the following question:
What is the name of Murs and 9th’s first collaborative album?
IMPORTANT:
1. The subject line of your email MUST read Nahright X Paid Dues or you’ll be automatically disqualified.
2. Do me a favor and don’t waste my time if you are not in NY or can’t make it here, on the night of the show.
UPDATE: Ok, contest is over, congrats to the winners. If you didn’t win, but still want to cop tickets, go here. There’s a buy one get one free offer right now, so you can’t beat that for a show with all of these artists.

Nah, I like concerts, but I like blues concerts better because they put on actual shows…Especially the zulu nation band shows, them joints are off the hook….
It’s just with rap, I get my fulfillment with listening to them on a cd, or catching a documentary of a live show……But most rap shows are garbage…
