Talk to Sa-Roc and Her ‘Talk to Me’ Tour
Themes of Self-Harm, Self-Love, Self-Worth with Sa-Roc at SOhO August 24
Assata Perkins, known as Sa-Roc, will be bringing her empowering and inspiring lyrics through her Talk to Me tour to Santa Barbara’s SOhO Restaurant & Music Club (1221 State St.) on August 24.
Like most musicians, Sa-Roc grew up surrounded by music, and being a female rapper was something that was always in the cards. Coming from Washington, D.C., Sa-Roc’s musical career began with a heavy influence from the unique musical style she had seen her entire life.
“The nature of D.C. is very interesting in that we have our own particular style of music called gogo that pulls its influences from a number of sources from funk to West African drums to even hip-hop,” she said. “I think that all of that eclecticism kind of worked its way into my expression as an artist.”
