Hiero First Friday @ Oaklandish
This First Friday, September 7th, will go beyond the bounds of reason. Oaklandish will be hosting a show by the legendary hip-hop collective Hieroglyphics.
 |
They’re fresh off the success of the very first Hiero Day, a celebration of everything good in Oakland: music, food, block parties, and original underground culture. In the words of Tajai, they want to “celebrate all the good things about Oakland. We get such a bad rap — no pun intended — as far as the city that we’re from. Hiero’s positive. We’ve been independent for decades, feeding our families. The city’s always getting ragged on, so let’s just show the best side we can.”
Del, Tajai and Domino will be accompanied by Life Before Time and Oaklandish resident DJ Dion Decibels. This show, like all great movements in Oakland, is entirely free – just show up early to make sure you get a good spot (Hiero should take the stage at around 9:30). We’ll also be debuting a fresh collaborative design: a very Oaklandish riff on the iconic third-eye logo.
Join us at 1444 Broadway from 7 – 11 for the finest in original Oakland culture. Our friends at Linden St. Brewery will be serving up free cups of their uncommonly tasty Common Lager, and served by bartenders from the excellent Chop Bar. Fivetenburger will be curbside with burgers, grilled cheese, fries, and their notoriously delicious truffled tater tots.

Oakland, listen up. This First Friday, August 3rd, Oaklandish will be joined by the unparalleled hip-hop duo Zion I. You won’t want to miss this one.
The Oakland-grown Zion I don’t need much of an introduction. Since they emerged on the Oakland hip-hop scene in the ’90s, these native sons have consistently produced versatile and innovative music. For a preview of Friday night’s festivities, check out their tribute to The Bay.
AmpLive and Zumbi will be accompanied by DJ Vin Roc of Triple Threat DJs. Oaklandish resident DJ Dion Decibels will be on the turntables, keeping the dance party going before and after the live set.
Join us at 1444 Broadway from 7 – 11 for the finest in Oakland music and entertainment. Our friends at Linden St. Brewery and Urban Legend Cellars will be serving up free, locally-fermented drinks. Fivetenburger will be curbside with your favorite burgers, fries and snacks (check our Local Lunch post for an ode to their truffled tater tots).
As always, this event is free and open to anyone with local love in their hearts. But make sure to stop by early because the spot always fills up fast. Zion I are expected to perform around 9:30 p.m. We’ll see you there.
