The New Parish – Oakland
January 15th, 2019 //
The New Parish in Oakland is celebrating their 10th anniversary this week with a performance from one of the city’s homegrown talents, Kamaiyah.
Regarded as one of XXL’s Top 10 rappers in its “2017 Freshman Class,” Kamaiyah Johnson has fast-tracked her way into the hip-hop spotlight with the release of her debut single “How Does It Feel”, which was featured on Pitchfork’s and NPR’s “Best of the Year” lists back in 2015.
After unveiling her first mixtape the following year, Kamaiyah appeared on festival bills around the country, including a coveted spot at South by Southwest and one of the most memorable sets at the rain-soaked, 10th annual edition of Treasure Island Music Festival (read our review here). Since then, she has collaborated with YG and Drake, and last year “Addicted to Ballin'” saw her team up with ScHoolboy Q.
This Tuesday, Kamaiyah will hit the stage in her hometown with JT The 4th and DJ William Stokes opening the show. Tickets are available for $27, or you could win a pair of tickets by submitting your full name and email below.
Contest ends this Tuesday at 3 p.m.
