Even the biggest names in hip-hop have to start somewhere. That place could be the 11TH ANNUAL UNSIGNED URBAN SHOWCASE, an evening that features up-and-coming performers as well as unsigned musicians. The bill includes Lil’ Wayne, Sean Garrett and Teyana Taylor as well as four hopefuls including Atlanta’s Holly Weerd, MC Jarren Benton and rapper Trimm, who’ll perform in front of a panel of judges. 9 p.m. at Luckie Lounge. Admission is $20 until 10 p.m. www.bmi.com. www.luckiefoodlounge.com.
