The series kicks off with a special party headlined by Tokimonsta, with support from Run P. and Kami at Bushwick’s theatrical venue House Of Yes.
Tokimonsta recently shocked the music scene when she publicly spoke on suffering from a rare and potentially fatal brain disease called Moyamoya. The producer underwent two surgeries and intensive therapy, having to relearn how to speak and understand music. Her BEMF performance follows her full recovery and latest album release.
