True Till Def with Youth of Today + Araabmuzik + Trash Talk + Kylesa + Action Bronson + Mr. Muthafuckin' eXquire and more

CMJ. Lately, there seems to be a movement to align the immediacy and aggression of punk with the danger and gut-punch aesthetic of hard-core hip-hop. Thus you’ve got straight-edge heroes Youth of Today and the archnihilists of Trash Talk sharing a CMJ bill with the no-nonsense Queens rap of Action Bronson and the ODB-in-grad-school stylings of Mr. Muthafuckin’ eXquire. In a way, it’s a social experiment. The hypothesis? There will be moshing.
