To pay tribute to Martin Luther King, Shemspeed chose 3 Jewish artists that mix their African American identities with their passion for Jewish music and melodies. Coolooloosh flew in from Israel and performed their first ever show in NYC along side Afro Semitic Experience, djhandler, and Y-Love. Special guests included Dov of Blue Fringe and Kosha Dillz!
