Livestream ‘Louisville by Jack Harlow’ Concert Paying Tribute to Hometown
Written by SOURCE on October 12, 2022
Jack Harlow is paying homage to his hometown of Louisville, Kentucky.
Tonight, the Grammy-nominated rapper will bless fans with a one-off concert livestreamed on Amazon Music’s Twitch channel. Though the show is going down at NYC’s Brooklyn Steel, it’ll celebrate the Southern city by transporting “fans deep into Harlow’s world, paying tribute to the rapper’s hometown” by giving “fans an up-close-and-personal taste of Harlow’s favorite small businesses, artists, and restaurants.”
The event, aptly titled “Louisville by Jack Harlow,” will include a one-hour performance by the 24-year-old as well as a special guest. There will also be a pre-show stream hosted by Mystery School—the music duo made up of Rapper Sir Michael Rocks and producer Owen Bones. The two will sit down with Harlow to discuss a wide range of topics, including the current state of rap, rising hip-hop communities, his new music, and, of course, Louisville. Mystery School will also perform a freestyle on audience-selected topics.
But that’s not all. As noted by Variety, those who watch the livestream will get exclusive access to custom merch made in collaboration with Bri Bowers, a Louisville-based artist who previously teamed up with Harlow for his No Place Like Home Tour. Ten viewers will receive a special merch bundle that includes a crossbody bag and a poster. Those interested in getting the goods must enter via chat using the hashtag #AmexSweepstakes.
