Day 2 of #AfropunkBrooklyn was amazing and very exhausting ?? Nakhane had an awesome performance. The crowd went crazy for Pusha T. Dj Lag played an electric Gqom set that had Sho Madjozi spontaneously take to the stage & me lose my mind dancing ???????????? Jenelle Monae was perfect. Erykah Badu aka Sara Bellum aka FatBellyBella aka Medulla Oblongata closed off #AfropunkBrooklyn in her unique style
