Springfield, Illinois, just 3 hours South of Chicago, the capitol of our state & the birthplace of Torch Tuesdays. Earlier this year it was my pleasure to be invited to glace the stage at 1 of the Midwest's best weekly hiphop showcases hosted by mc, Aaron "Uncanny" Phillips & presented by community organizer, Torch.
