Friday To-Do: FRESH


Rockst*r and friends

FRESH

8 p.m., Vino's. $5.

There are a lot of rappers on the grind in Little Rock, but none seem as adept at multi-tasking as Rockst*r. Busy nurturing a flourishing solo career — with new singles coming, lately, every couple of weeks — the MC has also found the time to take night classes, do voice work, grow his F.R.E.S.H. Goods clothing line of T-shirts and hoodies, perform steadily across the state and region and organize regular local concerts. Shew. On Friday, he's assembled a host of Little Rock's top young talent, including the 4X4 Crew, who put on a strong show at last week's Showcase; Young Taz of Next Page Records; the youth movement in Grim Muzik, Combination; 7 Deuce and Maxx of the Hip-Hop School, and Bonafied Music. The always-on-point DJ Discipline holds down the wheels of steel, Dirtbag hosts and of course Rockst*r will perform. Bring some dollars. Rockst*r will be ready to hook you up with some F.R.E.S.H. Goods for your spring and summer needs.

Tracy Ingle - who was shot five times by a North Little Rock SWAT team during a no-knock drug raid back in January - was slapped with a gag order during his first court appearance since a story about his case was published in the Arkansas Times on March 24. /more/

As Judge Wendell Griffen says, courage is not a vice (though critics seem to fault him for having it) but a virtue. /more/
