In collaboration with Mayor Rahm Emanuel and the City of Chicago, Wade’s World provided a day of entertainment that forged a strong message that youth CAN make better choices when their natural abilities, talents, and aspirations are nurtured through quality programming in a safe environment.  Festival participants were encouraged to sign the Choose to Live, Live to Dream Pledge which acknowledged their commitment to being aware of their surroundings, making better choices and reaching for their dreams.

Eazy E wasn’t the only deceased rapper to make an appearance at Rock The Bells 2103 this weekend.  Last night, Ol’ Dirty Bastard’s hologram performed a few songs with The Wu-Tang Clan in San Bernardino, CA.  

 

Watch the performance of "Shame on a Nigga" & "Shimmy Shimmy Ya":

Really feel like they could have gotten Mariah to surprise the crowd with that "Fantasy" remix.   Don’t mind us….

In cause you were wondering why Gabrielle Union wasn’t on Dwyane Wade’s arm this weekend, it’s because she was hanging out with lifestyle expert AJ Johnson and a few of their friends in San Fran.  They hit up the 49ers game yesterday. She tweeted "Good times at the #49er game w/ @theajzone @telltell_heart @larryjarahsims @jennagreen7 … #bandwagon #bandwagonspacewaslimited #bringiton"
