A 90-minute show about how black kids geek out is long overdue in Atlanta. Coming to Dad’s Garage in Midtown Atlanta is such an event.Starring Avery Sharpe, Jon Wierenga, Candy McLellan and Jon Carr, “Black Nerd” is what you get when you combine Dragon Con with Tyler Perry, or at least that’s what the promo says.“What happens when a black kid prefers listening to Weird Al over Kendrick Lamar, attend Dragon Con over the Jay-Z Concert, or Star Wars over Tyler Perry (there is still some debate about the prequels)? It’s the TV show Atlanta meets Dragon Con as the creator of the Dad’s Garage show “Wrath of Con” brings you a dark comedy about a young man’s journey navigating the expectations of his black family and white friends. When race and geekdom collide you get a Black Nerd.”July 13 – August 4

Atlanta rap group Migos have been the hottest names in rap for the past couple years, and it’s no wonder. With star collaborations with major acts like Drake, and most recently, Beyonce, the rappers know how to make a hit.
The group performed at the BET Awards recently, hyping the crowd on their hits “Walk It Like I Talk It,” and “Stir Fry.”
On June 21, 2018, Migos will receive the ASCAP Vanguard Award at the ASCAP Rhythm & Soul Music Awards In Los Angeles, California.
Migos exploded on the national scene in 2016 with their hit, “Bad and Boujee.” Since then, they have been a mainstay on the Billboard charts. The trio is touring with Drake as part of the Aubrey and the 3 Amigos tour.

On June 21, 2018, Migos will receive the ASCAP Vanguard Award at the ASCAP Rhythm & Soul Music Awards In Los Angeles, California.
The award recognizes the impact of artists that help shape the future of American music. Past ASCAP Vanguard Award honorees include Kendrick Lamar, Beastie Boys, Taio Cruz, Diplo, Janelle Monáe, Santigold, Dua Lipa, St. Vincent, The Arcade Fire, The Strokes, Beck and Bjork.
“From their peerless triplet-based raps to bringing the dab to pop culture, Migos have been one of the most influential acts in hip-hop,” said ASCAP President Paul Williams. “After breaking out with ‘Versace’ in 2013, Offset, Quavo and Takeoff proved that they could bring their trap style to the top of the charts. Their inimitable chemistry transcends genre.”
