Esteemed rapper Talib Kweli will be hitting the decks on Friday, June 6 at Mighty as a pre-party for Grind on the Green. The next day, June 7, he'll take the mic as the keynote speaker at Grind on the Green, a conference for young hip-hop hopefuls that splits time between San Francisco State and Yerba Buena. -- Jennifer Maerz

ALSO:

Billed as the first solar-powered youth hip-hop festival, Grind for the Green (G4G) has an impressive lineup: Raashan Ahmad of Crown City Rockers, the dynamic FIYAWATA, Jahi, Queen Deelah and DJ Ren the Vinyl Archaeologist of True Skool. While the show is geared toward young people (defined as 16-21), the goal is to bring families and the community together. And as a bonus, there is a special surprise MC.

Noon to 4 p.m. Sunday. Free. Yerba Buena Gardens, 760 Howard St., S.F. www.ybgf.org.
