NYC summer got a little hotter as guests at the 5th Annual Grits & Biscuits Block Party were surprised with performances from Rick Ross, O.T. Genasis, Casanova 2x and Pardison Fontaine on the Pier 17 Rooftop for a crowd-pleasing concert experience that celebrates Southern culture through urban music & cultural connections.

More than 3,000 guests turned up with Fontaine who kicked things off with hit record “Backin’ It Up” and set the tone for Brooklyn native Casanova 2x’s high-energy hometown performance.

Atlanta-born and Long Beach-raised rapper O.T. Genasis sent the crowd into a tizzy with chart-topping hits like (Beyonce’ approved) “Everybody Mad”, “Cut It”, and “Thick” before paying homage to his friend–late rapper Nipsey Hussle.
