QUOTATIONS OF "BLACK"

"Whenever I use BLACK it relates to some history of Africans in that particular place. It’s the idea of the color BLACK as a metaphor, or as a representation of African-Americans. It’s the notion of BLACK- BLACKNESS - and all its other meanings in relation to the history of race..."

- Fred Wilson



"Most of my fortitude to continue doing the work comes from the moral outrage I feel about the injustices that Black people endure disproportionately daily."

- N. Abdul-Wakil



"In the end, what matters is not skin shade but pan-African consciousness. Loving your complexion, your nose, lips, hair length and texture, no matter what the politics or trends decide, and simply be. That's the problem with us (African folks). We're still learning how to love ourselves. So used to glorifying others and putting others first..."

- Dredlocks Tree

With DJ Selly & Numerous Guest Performers!!!

Tickets Can Be Purchased In Advance At



Mixtape Live Vol II is one of the premier events leading up to the 2010 OutMusic Awards; as well as a benefit concert for the OUTMUSIC Foundation's Sponsor A Young Person Initiative. Our effort is to be a part of the solution to help the devastating issue of homeless young people in America and support organizations that provide services to homeless young people and at-risk youth.


On Saturday, November 27th at 8PM see some of the biggest names in the community perform live before the most fabulous crowd that New York City has to offer:

Cocoa Sarai (as seen on BET’s 106 and Park)
What keeps music fresh is its way of reinventing itself and Cocoa Sarai seems to have found a beautiful balance between the past and the present. Her soulful delivery over today's club driven style of production has given her a unique sound being referred to as "Pop-soul." With influences such as Prince, Billie Holliday & Mary J. Blidge she colors outside the lines and pushes the envelope of creativity.

Baron (as seen in BLEU Magazine)
Diversely inspired by hip-hop, new wave, rock and alternative, Baron blends his powerful vocals and songwriting talents to create a phenomenal mix of musical bliss.

Chery Lily (as seen on the Vans Warped Tour 2010)
Born and raised in Chicago, Cherie Lily moved to New York City with Big Apple dreams in 2002. Cherie’s music and personality quickly made a mark on the downtown NYC music scene with her punk rock bands Spank and FlüRT, while also making an impact in New York City’s premiere fitness clubs like Equinox, Reebok Sports Club, and Crunch.

Bry'Nt (as seen in Spin Magazine)
Bry'nt has had the privilege to perform throughout the country opening for artists such as Fantasia, Teairra Mari, RuPaul, and DJ Class. From interviews on Sirius Satellite Radio with DJ Kay Slay and Angela Yee, features in a number of magazines including Spin, Bleu, and Kontrol Magazine, having his own brand of condoms, and starring in the independent film "Finding Me: Truth", Bry’Nt has put himself at the forefront of an underground movement known as “Out Hip-Hop;” which consists of openly gay, lesbian and bi-sexual artists.

Nhojj (as seen on MTV.com)
Last year Nhojj made OUTMusic Awards history when he became the first black male to win an OUTMusic award. The Alliance of LGBT Recording Artists & Performers voted his ballad “Love” 2009 OUTStanding R&B/Soul song of the year. He broke another barrier earlier this year when his gay music video “Love” reached # 1 on MTV Music Top 100 chart.

SGT SASS (as seen in Philadelphia Weekly)
Slowly but surely, Sgt. Sass is shaking up the underground hip-hop and dance scenes with their eruption of sophisticated electronic turbulance. With their latest musical endeavor, a digital EP entitled Body Rock, the potent Philadelphian pair find themselves progressing towards a signature style of rhyme and flow and destroying dance-floors from secret warehouses to clubs in every gay ghetto, while still acting as a voice to queers across the world.

LiKWUiD (as seen on AOL Black Voices)
As a rising star and advocate for the positive media literacy of women within the hip hop industry, LiKWUid has collectively performed with the following ground breaking artists; Lyfe Jennings (tour), Talib Kweli, Dr. Dre's songstress TruthHurts, Balil, Jahiem, DJ Webstar, Frankie Beverly and Maze, Bow Wow (tour), and Jazmine Sullivan.

Honey Davenport (as seen in NEXT Magazine)
Elevating the realms of androgyny, Miss Honey Davenport commands power, energy, and evolution with each stage performance.

DJ SELLY (Ubiquita Worldwide as seen in the Village Voice)
It has been more than ten years of spinning for this Lower East Side DJ who continues to successfully canvas the New York City area with her anti- radio message. Selly began her career as a college DJ who later spread her sound throughout bar/event and nightlightlife scenes in New York as well as the larger globe.
