The CookUp: Pass The Aux
Sunday, October 26, 2025 | 7PM–10:30PM
📍 Granby St. Glow Juice Bar – 727 Granby St., Norfolk VA
Closing Out NSU Homecoming Weekend
The CookUp: Pass The Aux—the vibrant, producer-first platform known for energizing the boom bap underground—returns for an intimate, high-frequency experience at Granby St. Glow Juice Bar, one of the city’s most inviting creative hubs. This event stays true to The CookUp’s roots: curating intentional space where beatmakers, artists, and community collide in rhythm and purpose.
This special edition, presented by Illien Rosewell, closes out NSU Homecoming Weekend with monumental heat: a live performance by DMP, the original group of Grammy-winning producer Nottz Raw. It’s not just a concert—it’s a moment in Virginia hip hop history.
As always, Pass The Aux remains in effect, giving producers the chance to sign up, plug in, and be heard in real time. This is a cultural cipher. A creative potluck where the frequency drives the vibe, and participation is the pulse.
Expect:
- 🔊 Featured producers (TBA)
- 🎛️ Open Pass The Aux segment
- 🛍️ Curated local vendors: handmade goods, streetwear & wellness fare
- 🎁 Raffle prizes sponsored by local brands
- ✊🏾 A room full of unspoken rhythm and unmatched energy
“Pass The Aux is not pass the mic—it’s a meditative moment in motion. The boom bap lives through the beatmakers,” — Illien Rosewell
Glow becomes the perfect vessel to serve beats, culture, and elevation all in one night. Together, we preserve the roots while amplifying the future.
Come curious. Leave connected.
