On Saturday, August 11, Oakland-based hip hop duo Los Rakas performed a headlining show at Flamingo Cantina in Austin, Texas. It was the group’s first appearance in Austin since South By Southwest. Their “Pana-bay” style of hip hop was quite the crowd pleaser as attendees were dancing throughout their entire set. San Antonio-based Bombasta opened the show along with Peligrosa member DJ Sonora. Austin Vida contributing photographer Chris Carrasquillo was in attendance to capture the live photos below.
