Hip-hop legendary artists, along with up coming newbies, industry vets, beginners and hip-hop enthusiasts came together over a span of 5 days to cerebrate, rejoice, create and inspire all facets in the hip-hop community.
People from all over the world ascended on the A3c fest, which featured over 500 performances in a span of 5 days. A3c celebrated the most legendary names in Hip-Hop and unveiled the most talented and promising artists from across the US, and abroad.
