This year’s AFRAM featured local artists and iconic headliners, such as rapper Busta Rhymes, gospel singer Karen Clark Sheard, Morris Day and The Time, Big Daddy Kane, Mya, Alex Isley, and October London.

This was Unheard Voices first experience at AFRAM and it was nothing short of amazing. We thank the City of Baltimore’s Parks and Recreation Department for allowing us to capture this epic event.
