As we approach the one-year anniversary of Nature Boi’s critically acclaimed album "Godfawva" it seemed only right to bring the anniversary concert home to the DMV. This album has taken Nature Boi and his message across the U.S. and the U.K. alongside legends like GZA, AZ, 38 Spesh and more. Now the Godfawva experience will take over The Pocket DC for one night only to celebrate a certified classic album. Plus we have a few Special Guest and limited edition merch to add to the night. Grab your tickets asap and we’ll see you Dec 18th at The Pocket.

38 Spesh was born on December 29, 1984, in Rochester, New York and began rapping in the early 2000s. He began making appearances on Sirius XMshow Invasion Radio hosted by fellow Rochester native DJ Green Lantern in 2008 and was featured in XXL Magazine for his music in 2009.

Shortly after his initial breakthrough, 38 Spesh spent two years incarcerated and was paroled to Atlanta, Georgia, where he began to pursue a full-time career in music.

Following his release, Spesh began releasing several notable mixtapes and albums with other artists affiliated with his Trust Comes First Music group. Spesh’s musical style is highlighted by one of the most unique rapping voices in the game and his strong punchlines. Notable rappers who have worked with 38 Spesh include Styles P, Jadakiss, Fred the Godson, AZ, Noreaga and Kool G Rap. He has worked with several high-profile hip hop record producers among the likes of DJ Premier, Pete Rock and The Alchemist.

Rockstar artist and producer iCon is one of the most innovative talents born and raised in the DMV. He got his first musical experience singing and playing piano and drums in church. That background helps to shape his multi-genre sound, but that is only the start. iCon's music ranges from mellow PARTYNEXTDOOR love vibes to Trippie Redd rage trap, and hits everything in between. He melodically orchestrates beats and songs to not only vent about the dark side of love, but also to offer healing. As the King of the Broken Lovers, iCon is on a mission. He wants to use his voice to inspire and be a new type of artist who entertains while promoting mental health. iCon's music is musically and emotionally complex to help you feel good!

To celebrate the release of Broken Lover II, iCon is tacking over Pie Shop on H St. NE with special guest performance by Swiezo and Nature Boi hosting.
