Case Barge with Music by Unknownphrazes

Local rapper Case Bargé makes music that’s conscious, passionate and determined; he’s even drawn comparisons to acts such as Andre 3000, Childish Gambino and Kendrick Lamar. Two years ago, he issued a music video for “Manifest,” a tune that addresses issues such as politics, religion and “today’s media.” Last year, he issued “You & I,” a new music video that’s just as profound. At nearly ten minutes, it’s practically a short film. Expect tonight's concert to be a consciousness-raising affair. (Niesel)
