Back again for the second time the Red Bull Big Tune competition is in full swing, with Philly and Oakland already a wrap and Houston taking place TODAY, June 25. It doesn’t seem that long ago that Sabzi, of Blue Scholars and Common Market fame, edged out the competition to take the crown in the debut nation wide search, but with eight cities to hit you have to plan ahead.
