- RAKIM: A hip-hop revolutionary
One of Charlotte’s original “streetcar suburbs,” Plaza-Midwood’s history dates back to the early 1920s and part of it still are recognized as a local historic district. Here you’ll find grand homes on wide streets, just steps away from some of the most-happening shopping and noshing in town. Central Avenue teems with good food, good buys and good people. (C’mon, where else can you buy a fuchsia wig, get a facial and then chow down on a chili burger?) P-M neighbors are wonderfully convivial, gathering often at their honest-to-goodness community garden, during their “Winter Fling” celebration, and when welcoming visitors to the “Midwood Maynia” festival and home tour. Whoever says Charlotte doesn't have soul hasn't been to Plaza-Midwood lately.
Rakim plays Amos SouthEnd; Friday, Sept. 29; 9pm; $25; 18+. Check out www.amossouthend.com for more details.
