Manifesto, one of the country’s biggest celebrations of hip hop, community and culture, is back for a 15th year with a two-day summit and a full day of live music. The summit is free to access online and will cover important artist development topics like personal financing and marketing music. Not to be missed is the panel Stolen Canada (Thurs., Sept. 9, 4 pm ET), discussing hip hop’s role in raising consciousness and featuring 2oolman of The Halluci Nation and Bob Marley’s granddaughter, Donisha Prendergast.
Saturday is all about live performances from Notifi, Savannah Ré, Raz Fresco and many others. You can catch the action in person at CityView Drive-In (no car required!) or watch live online.
