“The Appreciation of a Queen Concert”, was what we thought it would be; a successful Puma affair that brought many people of different walks of life together to hear live music, and show love to the Hip Hop Chef Queen Valerie Brass. It was so heartwarming to see the crowd represented by wearing fresh Puma.

The event featured a multitude of tasty dishes made by the Hip Hop Chef, that complimented her personality and love for creating in the kitchen.
Now Queen Val is called the “Hip Hop Chef” for a reason, and that’s because her love for Hip Hop & food has transcended past the likes of the everyday citizen and high ranking representatives of the culture.

Therefore, the highlight of the night was watching Queen Val be given the “Appreciation of the Queen Hip Hop Chef” award in front of a crowd that loves who she is, and what she does for the community!
The food stations featured an array of dishes such as; Nachos, tacos, flavored wings, regular & vegan fajitas, Mac N Cheese,cabbage, salad, regular & vegan meatloaf, and many more dishes… Also, special shout-out to the other food vendors like Hazel Pugh of Kamari’s Catering, and Temeka Rai of Meeks Sweet Trap.
Many positive reviews were left for the itemized vendors such as; Yvette Ross of Shaded Vision, Ricky Wilson of Team Playa Fragrances, CiCi’s Natural Jewelry by Judge TwoHeavy, and AJ Chaka/The Camp merch from Neo Gold Entertainment.
The Appreciation of a Queen Concert was hosted by Ms.K of Neo Gold Entertainment & Dean Manuscript of Tri Coastal Radio.
The concert featured artists such as: Kinfolk Jack, John Jigg$, Spaceship Ohaysses, AJ Chaka, Celebrity, The Remedy, Manu Velli, Re:Zen,The Village, Air & Hippie Snooks, Cree8ion, Jay Nonstop, King. Kidd, Tha Craziac, and many more…
All of the DJ’s represented, it was nice watching DJ Dogstyle, DJ Lady Jaroq, and DJ Gabie “The Gift” of Mxnxpxly. Oh So Dope Photography handled photos for the event, while Rightxous Life Media handled video live-streaming for the event with their great team.
