Hip Hop heads – this is for you!

PinBoard is giving one lucky winner a chance to win a pair of tickets to see Brother Ali live in London on July 8th.

Brother Ali brings mad energy to the stage, it’s kinda unreal. I saw him at Cargo last year and was blown away. Truly. Having been a long standing fan of his for years, it wasn’t until last year that I realised how much of a great performer he is.  He brings crazy energy and he’s funny too! If you’ve seen him before, you’ll know, if you haven’t – you need to know. Either way, you need to be at this gig.

All you need to do to enter is email competition@pinboardblog.com with the subject title ‘Brother Ali Competition’ and leave your name, number and full postal address. G’luck!

The show is in London, so please only enter if you can be at the gig on July 8th in Camden.
