Atlanta's A3C hip-hop festival has announced their first round of partners—including labels Stones Throw, Def Jux, Duck Down, Fatbeats, Babygrande, Tres, The Hydrilla and The Bench—which should give a decent hint as to someo of the acts that will be performing. Other sponsors include MySpace, Redbull, Frank 151, Okayplayer, Fusicology, Wax Poetic and lil ole URB. This years' festival has been relocated to East Atlanta Village and will function more like SXSW and CMJ, with participants bouncing around to multiple venues and showcases. A3C takes place Oct 1-3, which is pretty much guaranteed to be the prettiest weather weekend in ATL.
