Johnny Brenda’s is about to gain some serious junk in their trunk tonight when the Beats & Rhymes production and MC showcase makes it’s way to potentially turn my favorite little two-story indie venue into one when the second floor collapses from all the bumpin’/grindin’. The whole affair will be hosted by fiery female MC Ethel Cee whose laid back 808 beats and hard-hitting flow will keep the crowd entertained throughout the night. Her lyrics are dense and fairly harsh, but her smoky voice is calm and confident in a way that eases the intensity of her delivery. This will be a great opportunity too hear Philly hip hop new and old so don’t miss out! Johnny Brenda’s, 1201 N. Frankford Ave., 9pm, $10, 21+ – Adam G.
