Boundless: Artist in the Archives with Black Atticus

Spoken word performer and hip-hop artist Black Atticus will perform at the John C. Hodges Library in the first public performance of an original song inspired by materials in the University of Tennessee's Betsey B. Creekmore Special Collections and University Archives. Black Atticus is a local artist who has been on the hip-hop scene for over a decade. His musical style is inspired by his Southern roots, and he has been called one of the most heartfelt voices of the Southern hip-hop movement. His performances seamlessly weave the art of storytelling with electric rhyme slaying over moody baselines and drum patterns that keep the whole room involved. The performance in the Lindsay Young Auditorium will begin at 6:30 p.m.
