[CONTEST] Win Tickets to See Talib Kweli Live in Toronto at Rockpile West (Feb. 20)

Don’t say The Kitchen never hooked you up! After the ticket giveaway contest for this past weekend’s amazing Diamond D show, here goes yet another contest for what should be a great show.

Artist/activist Talib Kweli, one half of the legendary Black Star duo with Mos Def, Reflection Eternal with Cincinnati DJ/Producer, Hi-Tek and an outstanding solo artist in his own right, will be in town this Friday (Feb. 20) to perform live at Rockpile West. Surprised he’s playing there but this is a great opportunity to see a top-tier MC like Kweli in a more intimate venue and we’re giving away a single pair of tickets for it! Want a chance at winning them? Just do the following:

1. Follow me on twitter at @Stellaskid (necessary so I can DM you in the event that you win)

2. Tweet the following message exactly: “Hey @Stellaskid: I wanna win tickets to see @TalibKweli live at @RockpileClub in Toronto on Feb. 20” (note: no quotation marks needed, just the message inside the quotation marks is fine)

Simply RT-ing any tweets I do promoting this contest does NOT enter you to win. The contest will close at 12 noon EST on Friday (Feb. 20). The winner will be notified via twitter DM. Winner will also be responsible for their own transportation to the show.

For more details on this show, click the Facebook event page HERE and for those not knowing, hit the jump to check music by Kweli, old classic and newer.
