Friday night brings rap and hip-hop to the Dogwood Fes- tival with a trio of headliners with well-known hits from the '80s and '90s. First up, at 8 p.m: Young MC, best known for "Bust A Move," a 1989 hit that Rolling Stone magazine 20 years later described as "a G-rated funk-bomb integral to hip- hop's eventual mainstream acceptance." It's got a "popping bassline" and "infectious rhymes," the magazine said – and it's still very familiar today. Even if you don't think you've ever heard its incredibly danceable beat, you almost certain- ly have, in the soundtracks of movies, TV shows and ads. Young MC's other hits include "Principal's Office" and "at's the Way Love Goes." He co-wrote the Tone-Loc hits "Wild ing" and "Funky Cold Medina." At 9 p.m.: Coolio performs. e rapper with the spiky braids created one of the most successful rap songs of all time with 1995's "Gangsta's Paradise," used in the movie "Dan- gerous Minds." His other hits include "Fantastic Voyage," "1, 2, 3, 4 (Sumpin' New)" and "C U When U Get ere." He also rapped the theme song for the '90s Nickelodeon series "Kenan & Kel." At 10 p.m. comes Rob Base, half of the team that made the 1988 platinum album "It Takes Two" (whose biggest hit was a ubiquitous song with the same name) and the 1989 gold album "e Incredible Base." Other hit songs include "Get on the Dance Floor" and "Joy and Pain." Base's musical part- ner, DJ E-Z Rock, died in 2014 from complications related to diabetes. e festival's traditional Boom and Bloom fireworks show will start as the rap concert ends. Saturday night's headliner is country artist Rodney At- kins, set to perform at 9 p.m. Atkins, who was the Academy of Country Music's Top New Male Vocalist in 2006, has had six No. 1 hits on the country charts over the last 12 years, including "If You're Go- ing rough Hell (Before the Devil Even Knows)," "Watch- ing You," "ese Are My People" and "Take a Back Road." Atkins has made four studio albums and is working on his fih. He has sold more than 10 million records. On Sunday, Zoso, a Led Zeppelin tribute band, will per- form, starting at 7 p.m. Zoso calls itself "the ultimate Led Zeppelin Experience" and prides itself on embodying Led Zeppelin and its mem- bers in appearance, playing style and performances. Zoso has been playing together since 1995 and says its members "have perfected their art." Music will be all around at the festival, including local performers on the Cape Fear Music Stage on Green Street from noon to 6 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. But the big names will be performing at night on the CenturyLink stage at Festival Park. Local acts will perform before them, including all afternoon on Saturday and Sunday.
