Kendrick Lamar added to KUBE 93 Summer Jam

Posted by Paul de Barros

Rap star Kendrick Lamar — the guy Macklemore said should have bested him for the Best Rap Album Grammy this year, for “good kid m.A.A.d. city” — and Seattle’s own Sir Mix-A-Lot have been added to the second day of the KUBE 93 Summer Jam 2014, which takes place June 6-7 at the Gorge Amphitheatre.

It’s shaping up to be a great lineup, with Ice Cube, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, E40, Too $hort and DJ Quick playing June 6; and Mix, Lamar, Rick Ross, Big K.R.I.T., Big Sean and Kid Ink June 7.

Tickets: 800-745-3000 or www.ticketmaster.com.
