The tandem of Hassan Malik and Abdullah Saeed, a.k.a. Sunny Ali & the Kid, will make a rare live appearance as part of an appropriately diverse/eclectic lineup for the final Rockers event of the calendar year, which takes place in West Philly this evening at Dahlak Paradise. Sunny Ali & The Kid have a fluid musical framework touching on numerous genre ideas and delivering a cognizant lyrical message through the blending of garage-punk, electronic-psych, and hip-hop feel. The night will also feature the Afropunk stylings of The Mighty Paradocs, packing a purpose-laden punch and a highly energetic instrumentation that balance groove and assertive aggression. Dahlak Paradise, 4708 Baltimore Ave., 9pm, All Ages – Michael Colavita
