Good hip-hop shows have been looking a little scarce in Charlotte at the start of the year, unless you’re the type to think Kid Rock or G. Love and the Special Sauce count as hip-hop (GTFOH). But as always, it’s Snug to the rescue. Knocturnal and Player Made have kept the city afloat in a drought, and the Permanent Vacation crew returns on Friday night to spin all your favorite Southern rap and celebrate CLT songstress Autumn Rainwater’s birthday. As always, it’s free as fuck.
