2012 Rock The Bells International
Festival Series Press Release
Boost Mobile and Guerilla Union have recently unveiled the latest artist
additions to the previously announced lineup of ROCK THE BELLS 2012
FESTIVAL SERIES powered by BlackBerry. Joining the all-star roster are
DMX, Eve, Jadakiss, Wu-Block, Mix Master Mike, Pusha T & Future. For the
complete lineup per market, visit www.rockthebells.net.
Four-time Platinum selling artist DMX will play a headlining role at
ROCK THE BELLS this summer, performing songs from his six Billboard
chart-topping albums. Joining him will be label-mates Eve and Jadakiss,
slated to perform their own sets. Wu-Block, the joint album featuring
Ghostface Killah, Raekwon, Jadakiss, Sheek Louch and Styles P, has been
highly anticipated since the project’s reveal in 2011. Wu-Block is
scheduled to release later this year and ROCK THE BELLS will be the
first major platform for fans to see the album performed live by the
Wu-Tang Clan and D-Block members. Mix Master Mike has a very rare
performance lined up for Rock the Bells. The Beastie Boys’ DJ and
contributor will also release the official ROCK THE BELLS mixtape this
summer; more details coming soon. Pusha T and Future will make their
first appearance at the festival this summer. Previously announced
artists J Cole and 2 Chainz will join the lineup for the New Jersey
stop, and Common for the San Bernardino stop. Guerilla Union founder
Chang Weisberg shares his excitement: “I am thrilled to announce all the
great artist additions to ROCK THE BELLS. The variety of talent makes
this lineup the most dynamic yet. There’s a nice combination of
legendary and up-and-comings acts, and a majority of them are releasing
new material as well. Plus, believe it or not, there is still more to be
announced.”
