The ARTS, BEATS & EATS Festival will take place Labor Day weekend and this is the first year that it has been moved from Pontiac to Royal Oak. Unfortunately, the line-up is lacking in the R&B area this year as far as major artists are concerned. In the past they have had such artists as Charlie Wilson, Chaka Khan, The Isley Brothers and this year the main major R&B act is Macy Gray...When did she become R&B. Being black doesn't make one R&B. There are some blues and local R&B acts but I wonder if they are in their own way trying to tell US something. Just wondering:
Here's the line up:
