The Roots Announce L.A. Picnic for ‘The Class of ‘95’: Lil’ Kim, DJ Quik, E-40, More
The Roots Picnic's second Los Angeles event will take place on June 8 at the Hollywood Bowl featuring Lil’ Kim, Redman & Method Man, and more.
Named “A Roots Picnic Experience: The Class of ’95,” it will feature 1990s rap all-stars such as Lil’ Kim, Redman& Method Man, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, DJ Quik, Raekwon, E-40, Goodie Mob, Havoc (of Mobb Deep), the Roots themselves, and others to be announced.
