If you missed this weekend’s RnB Soul Picnic, you missed a lot! The 2024 RnB Soul Picnic, presented by York Promotions, was hosted by Porsha Williams (Saturday) and CeeLo Green (Sunday).
The heart of Atlanta’s Westside Park pulsed with soulful beats and vibrant energy as the 2024 RnB Soul Picnic unfolded over Mother’s Day weekend, May 11th to 12th. This year’s event, a celebration of R&B music, DJs, and a poignant platform for mental health awareness, drew over 10,000 enthusiasts who reveled in the R&B rhythms and meaningful messages.
With special guest hosts Porsha Williams (Saturday) and CeeLo Green – who also curated a set with his tour DJ, the RnB Soul Picnic delivered an unforgettable experience.
With special sets by renowned DJs such as ATL’s own Bryan-Michael Cox (pictured), NYC’s own Kid Capri, the incomparable DJ Trauma (known for his collaborations with Dave Chappelle and his ties to CAU), DJ Envy from the Breakfast Club and more, attendees were treated to a diverse array of sounds that touched every decade of R&B.
DJs for the weekend included: Traci Steele (pictured above), DJ Envy (pictured below), Bryan-Michael Cox, Tephlon, Mars, SNS, Stormy Monroe, DJ Nasty 305, Tron, Bowtie DJ, Queen of Spades, DSA, Kid Capri, Princess Cut, Trauma, Reese, PNut, Yung Fro, and J Smoov.
Beyond the music, the weekend served a higher purpose, shining a spotlight on mental health advocacy. Partnering with Shanti Das’s “Silence the Shame” and Dr. Marcus Green of New Beginnings Today, the RnB Soul Picnic aimed to destigmatize mental health issues and foster open conversations.
One of the highlights of the event was the generous contribution from York Promotions, who donated $5000 to Silence the Shame, further bolstering efforts to support mental health initiatives.
