Pronounced “sneaker beast”, the SNKRBST launch event happens May 19th in NYC.
Not to be confused as strictly a sneaker event, on SNKRBST (hosted by Angela Yee) kicks off with their first ever event. Along with all of the sneaker buying/selling/trading is one of the better music lineups I’ve seen around. SNKRBST brings together Kool G Rap, Big Daddy Kane, Joe Budden with local NY rappers Vnny Cha$e and The Underachievers throughout the day along with DJ Clark Kent, Jasmine Solang, Roxy Cottontail all DJing.
This isn’t just a one-off show, more like a movement as shown by dates scheduled once every month starting this May and thru October along the East Coast with stops on the West Coast to follow. Sean from the OSD Live webshow said this “injected the sneaker event concept with some HGH” on their last show.
Those interested in selling anything at a single or all of the events can check out the official SNKRBST vendor package in PDF form.
On May 19th, the SNKRBST National Sneaker Show Launch Event takes place at Stage 48 on 605 W. 48th St in New York City from 11 AM to 8 PM. Tickets are $30.
