About The Event
Sage Francis (CEO of Strange Famous Records) is widely considered one of our generation's greatest lyricists. His gifted wordplay creates vividnarratives to instigate as well as inspire, but it often derives from anaccumulation of public disdain and personal turmoil. Dubbed the"forefather of indie-hop,” a sub-genre which gained great traction in thelate 90s, Francis originally earned acclaim in the early 2000's by winningthe most highly coveted titles of the emcee battle circuit (Scribble Jamand The Super Bowl Battle.) This was coupled with the waves he wascausing in the newly burgeoning spoken word scene.
