THE NEWS country. Page 8 Page 5 Bringing the Future to Durham SCOPE presents Future as this year’s spring concert By HADLEY BARNDOLLAR STAFF WRITER UNH students fi nally have a confi rmed spring concert in their “Future,” as Scope announced its long-awaited performer on Monday afternoon. Rapper Future will take the stage at the Whittemore Center on Fri- day, April 29. Artists Bas and Cousin Stizz will be the show’s openers. Holding multiple Billboard spots at the moment, Future’s most no- table work is a recent collaborative album with mega-star Drake, and as well as his high volume of released music. Popular songs of his include “Low Life” and “Where Ya At.” “He has single-handedly shaped the fresh new genre of trap mu- sic,” Scope’s Publicity Director Amanda Chabot said. “With the amount of music he continues to release, Future [is becoming] one of the most valued rappers in the industry right now.” Opener Bas is signed to J. Cole’s Dreamville Records. Cousin Stizz is a local artist, hailing from Boston and signed with WME Records. Future seemed out of our reach because of his high status in the hip-hop world,” said Caitlin Meaney, Scope publicity member. “He’s defi nitely at the top of his game; when you think hip-hop, you think Future.” Tickets for this year’s spring concert will go on sale this Thursday at 8 a.m. Tickets can be purchased at Mubtickets.com. Doors at the Whittemore Center will open on April 29 at 7 p.m., with the show beginning at 8:30 p.m. COURTESY OF SCOPE SBP election winners announced ACAI BOWLS TAKE ON DURHAM By ZERINA BAJRAMOVIC and Economics (Paul College), moving crew.
