When you think of Jack Daniel’s, you might think of classic & affordable whiskey. However, there’s more to the company than just good liquor. Back in 2004, they put together an art & music showcase called Art, Beats, & Lyrics (AB+L) in Atlanta.
Since then it has grown into a one-of-a kind cultural experience offering an exhibition of urban art & hip-hop across the nation. The event was created by Jabari Graham & Dubelyoo aka the Cult Creative. Jack Daniels came in as a sponsor back in 2012 to help propel the event to a national experience. Over the 14 years, AB+L has featured noted creatives like Kendrick Lamar, Scarface, Rhapsody, Master P, DJ Wally Sparks, Hebru Brantley, Mannie Fresh, Bun B, and many more.
For the 1st time, they added electronic art w/ light boxes & holograms this year curated by Dwayne ‘Dubelyoo’ Wright. You can check some of the amazing examples of them below.
This kicked off earlier this year and it ain’t over yet. There’s still time to catch some of the shows for the rest of this year & early next year. So as long as you live in either Charlotte, Miami, Atlanta, or Louisville.
