festival experience that felt more like a family cookout than an overdrawn production right in the epicenter of the south.
By pairing legendary acts such as George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic with more modern standouts such as Nas and 2Chainz he has managed to create an environment with something for everyone.
By curating an experience that draws talent from all sections of hip-hop culture One Music Fest and Jason Carter has managed to draw out thousands each year, and only continue to grow. The diversity seen at One Music Fest is vital in “introducing different communities and pockets within Atlanta to one another” says Carter.
In addition to uniting the community through music One Music Fest and Carter also recognize the need for mental health awareness within the black community.
“September is suicide awareness month so we partnered with Silence the Shame and Shanti Das to address an issue that directly affects the urban community – suicide and mental health in general” through the collaboration between one Music Fest and “Silence the Shame”, Carter hopes to shine light on mental health in the urban community and music industry.
