Like last year, the Paid Dues Festival has broken beyond the confines of a mere one-day event. But instead of a tour, this year's Paid Dues will expand to a "festival series" of shows in Berkeley, Denver, New York City, and Fort Lauderdale this June. We know, it sounds like a tour to us too.

Hosted by the magnanimous Murs and presented by Guerilla Union, the series features sets by Rakim, De La Soul, GZA, Blackalicious, Murs & 9th Wonder, Hieroglyphics, Little Brother, Buckshot, Sage Francis, Yak Ballz, Kidz in the Hall, Supernatural & Scratch, Solillaquists of Sound, and Braille on various dates.
