(AllHipHop News) Organizers for the 2012 Music Midtown Festival have announced T.I. and Ludacris as participating headliners for their two-day event, to take place on September 21-22 at Piedmont Park in Atlanta, Georgia. T.I. will be one of the headliners on Saturday, September 21, along with indie rock band The Avett Brothers and the 11-time Grammy Award-winning Foo Fighters.

The Music Midtown Festival was first held in 1994 and for the next 11 years, until 2005, when organizers put the festival on a hiatus due to declining attendance and ticket sales. The festival was relaunched last year as a successful one-day concert, and will return this September as a two-day event. Tickets can be purchased beginning on April 28 at 12PM as part of a limited-time-only “early-bird special” – one-day passes are $55 and two-day passes are $100, and will increase to $65 and $120, respectively. V.I.P. and Super V.I.P. tickets will also be available for purchase.

Ludacris Releases “1.21 Gigawatts: Back to the First Time” Mixtape

(AllHipHop News) Earlier today (November 15), Atlanta native and Disturbing Tha Peace founder, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges, released his new, mostly Southern-fueled mixtape, 1.21 Gigawatts: Back to the First Time. 1.21 Gigawatts is being released following Ludacris’ brief hiatus from music over the past few years to focus on acting. Since 2009, Ludacris has starred in over five films, including Gamer, No Strings Attached, and Fast Five, and he released one musical project, Battle of the Sexes, last year. This should surely hold fans over until his eighth studio album, Ludaversal, is released either in December or early 2012. Containing 12 tracks with production from the likes of Tone Mason, Big K.R.I.T,. Juicy J, Drugs, Drumma Boy, and Fat Boi, 1.21 Gigawatts also sports verses from some of the hottest and most buzzed about current artists in Hip-Hop such as 2 Chainz, Meek Mill, Wiz Khalifa, Gucci Mane, Wacka Flocka Flame, Big K.R.I.T, and Rick Ross.
