We were super stoked to cover ATHfactor-Liberty Entertainment’s vinyl release party for Now is the Time: Shouting Fire in a Crowed Theater out at Creature Comforts on Friday, October 14, 2022. While supplies lasted, attendees were able to receive a free vinyl copy of the album and listen to the album’s tracks being performed live by the featured artists, including:
Not everyone on the album was able to perform live this particular evening; however, those who did perform were amazing and it was a really great night to connect with all the artists in-person. Between all the performances, Montu as Emcee, and DJ Chiefrocka on the decks, it was an epic night of hip-hop!
Presented by ATHfactor-Liberty Entertainment with University of Georgia’s Wilson Center for Humanities and Arts, this Athens-centric project showcases eight songs with 12 local hip-hop artists, two local poets, and a handful of local producers. The project’s aim is to present the listener with modern-day protest music to raise awareness around issues plaguing America and to help act as a catalyst for change.
