AUGUST 2010 DAS LINE-UP 2010 IST KOMPLETT Nebst den bereits bekannten Acts um US-Superstar Ludacris vervollständigen die nimmermüden Evidence & Alchemist (USA) und die britischen Experimental-Rapper Foreign Beggars das diesjährige Line-Up des Royal Arena Festivals in Orpund bei Biel. Zahlreiche Schweizer Gruppen, die Arena Graffiti Gallery und das Royal B-Boy Battle sorgen für das Sahnehäubchen. LUDACRIS ist DAS Highlight des diesjährigen Jubiläum-Festivals! Rapper, Schauspieler und Entertainer; kaum einer ist so vielseitig und erfolgreich wie Ludacris. Mit dem Aufstieg des Dirty South-Raps erkannte Chris Bridges aka Ludacris seine Chance und setzte sich an die Spitze dieser Bewegung. Der Vorzeige-Entertainer wird am Royal Arena Festival sein neues Album „Battle of Sexes“ vorstellen und ist ein würdiger Abschluss des Festivals 2010. Auch die Auftritte von REFLECTION ETERNAL (Talib Kweli & Hi-Tek), die ihr neues Album „Revolutions per Minute“ im Gepäck haben und SIDO (mit Liveband) gehören zu den meisterwarteten Höhepunkten. Hits wie „Strangers (Paranoid)“, „Midnight Hour“, „Mein Block“, „Schlechtes Vorbild“, „Strassenjunge“ oder „Der Himmel soll warten“ werden das Römerareal zum Erzittern bringen. Dem Auftritt der BOOT CAMP CLIK wird schon heftig entgegen gefiebert. Kein Wunder gehören die Jungs aus Brooklyn trotz Underground-Status doch zu den beliebtesten Live- Acts der Schweiz. Boot Camp wurde 1992 in Brooklyn gegründet und transportiert seither ehrlichen Eastcoast-Rap in die ganze Welt.
