Rock the Bells

The annual convocation of hip-hop legends (and the rising artists who love them) swings through Governors Island Saturday, this year hosted by Wu-Tang Clan's RZA. The lineup includes classic albums performed live by their creators: Erykah Badu (Baduizm), the reclusive Lauryn Hill (The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill), Queens's own Nas (Illmatic), Wu-Tang's top graduates Mos Def and Talib Kweli (reuniting as Black Star), and more. Up-and-comers include Donald Glover, whom fans of NBC's Community know as Troy, but at Rock the Bells will be going by Childish Gambino, a skilled (if slightly neurotic) rapper fond of pop culture references.
