Pac Div is Coming To Pittsburgh!


Rap trio Pac Div will be performing in Pittsburgh at The Shadow Lounge on Thursday, September 30 to kick off their “Underdogs Tour.”


Brothers Like and Mibbs and long time friend BeYoung make up Pac Div. All three were originally part of a larger group, Pacific Division, which released their first project Sealed For Freshness: The Blend Tape in 2006.


After releasing a host of videos, unreleased tracks (most of which have appeared on DJ Sean G’s Lever 2008 and 2009 mixtapes), Pac Div found a home with Universal/Motown Records.


They released their highly praised project Church League Champions which boosted their career. Pac Div received praise for their great lyrical content and eventually their videos for “Mayor” and “Whiplash/Young Black Male” started getting airplay on MTV. Pac Div has also been featured in many magazines such as Billboard, Rolling Stone, and The Source.


This year they released “Don’t Mention It,” their last mixtape until the release of their highly anticipated album “Grown Kids Syndrome” which comes out in the winter.


Pac Div’s show in Pittsburgh will open with performances by local rapper Nick Pratt, and The Varsity Squad (Shade Cobain x Jon Quest x Beedie), as well as Hands Down (Charon Don x DJ Huggy), and LOS & CLG.


The event is open to people 18 years old and older, with the doors opening at The Shadow Lounge at 8pm and performances starting at 9pm. Meet and Greet attendance by email only.
