Stop associating the month of May with lilies, afternoons in the park and kite flying. Start thinking friends, parties and concert tickets. This month is going to scorch your pants off. Some of today's hottest artists are headed to this area from all over the world to perform in some of the biggest concerts to ever hit our own backyard.
Artists run the gamut from rappers to pop stars, locals to international celebrities.
Here's a glance at the must-see shows of the month and the artists that make them so incredible. The Haitian MC and producer started out in Brooklyn collaborating with his cousin Pras. The two started working with Lauryn and were later known worldwide as the Fugees. Show some support to a man who's just as respected in the industry as he is on the streets. It's going to be an incredibly hot performance.
