Bring a Child Out of the Cold, Dance Party!

By Diezel P

DJ LayLow and Ozone are giving back again; the promoters/hosts known for their heart of gold have collaborated to form the “Bring a Child Out of the Cold, Dance Party”, a charity Hip Hop show which will take place Thursday January 21^st, 2010 at Barracuda (2^nd and NW Couch). Doors open at 10pm and admission is free for all attendees 21 and up, and only $10 for those between 18 to 20 years of age. There will be live performances by Portland native hip hop groups Bad Habitat, Lady Matriarx, Tru Game, and DJ Mentos along with drawings for prizes.

Ozone has raised thousands of clothes, canned foods, toys, and dollars for multiple charity organizations in past successful Hip Hop fundraisers while DJ LayLow coordinates concerts that regularly result in over a thousand in capacity, so this bound to be a spectacular event for the greater Portland area. To make the “Bring a Child Out of the Cold, Dance Party” a beneficial showcase, they ask for a donation of a coat or a toy for a boy or girl, which will be generously given to Northwest Impact for proper distribution to Portland’s youth.

Support local hip hop, especially when local hip hop is supporting the youth of our community and donate a coat, toy, and lend an ear to the “Bring a Child Out of the Cold, Dance Party” and Northwest Impact this Thursday at Barracuda. As said by DJ LayLow “Those of us in the hip-hop community have benefited from what we do and would like to give back to our community and show a positive side of hip-hop that most don’t see, the kids are our future and if we don’t look out for them who will?”
