This year marks the 7th year in a row for the Rock The Bells Hip-Hop music festival and this year the line-up seems to be the most stacked thus far. The event is touring and Saturday’s show will be held in San Francisco. Check out the set list below to see what What’s Really good flew to the bay to see in person — and yeah, we’ll be blogging about the concert after we make it out of the show.

Due to the magnitude of this concert tour and it’s grouping of some of the most influential, important and head-nod-ensuing artists in Hip-Hop history, Jamar Younger and I couldn’t miss out on this show. So we, along with Arizona Daily Star reporter Alexis Huicochea, flew out to San Francisco from Tucson this morning at about 8 a.m. to catch all the action.

Tomorrow night Jamar and I will be posting our review of Rock the Bells. Check back for that. But, so far, day one of the trip has been…well, a trip.

Our accomidations are at the illustrious Alexander Inn, not too far from Union Square. The rooms are best described as under construction and our first room had the view of a furnace and a brick wall. Our room also had just one bed and not much space to move around in.

When making our reservations, we requested two beds, so after ever so kindly reminding them of our original request, not only did we get room with an actual view — we were upped to two beds. Oddly, the room had no shower curtain. But for $66 a night it’s not too bad and the location is awesome.

With room issues mostly settled — most of the lights don’t work among other things — we decided to get in some sterotypical tourist sights in for the day. Fisherman’s Wharf. Ghirardelli Square. The Gate.

And since we are all music nerds…we hit up Amoeba Music over in the Haight Ashbury section of the city. Jamar picked up some UGK and I picked up some vinyl — Kanye, KRS-One, Rakim, NaS, RJD2 and Boop Bip.

San Francisco is gorgeous. Again, check back in tomorrow for our review of Rock The Bells SF.
