Underground hip-hop event to take place at Dublin's Grand Social

Dublin's WLIN Underground event is back with another underground hip-hop event at The Grand Social in Dublin 1 this weekend, Friday 4th August.

As the only event brand in Ireland that specialises in new era Trap and Hip-Hop music, it will focus specifically on American underground artists.

Friday's event will feature a set from DJ Spaqz, who has worked with some of the biggest and most revered hip-hop acts around the world such as Nas, 50 Cent and Jay-Z.

Also making an appearance is Braydee, the music artist who founded the WLIN brand in high school. He will be performing some new and exciting music for the first time. Exciting artists R.O.B, X.O Zenn, Giddy Nun, and Phatphuq are also due to play sets during the packed night.

Previous renditions of the event were held at esteemed Dublin venues like Workman's Club and Soundhouse. The sold-out events made a name for the event series as the heart of Dublin's rising hip-hop movement, redefining the city's entertainment scene.

WLIN Underground is "the ONLY event in not only Dublin, but the whole of Ireland, where you will find the DJ playing artists like Destroy Lonely, Ken Carson and Lil Peep, and many, many more," as posted on the party's Eventbrite page. "Come celebrate all things Hip-Hop, show off your greatest fit, and make some new really cool friends to come to our next show with."

The over 18's event will be giving away prizes for best dressed as well as best dancer/mosher, so participants are encouraged to bring their A-game.

Tickets are listed from €10 - €15, and you can find them here.
