This year's A3C Hip-Hop Festival in Atlanta, Georgia is getting a makeover.  On Tuesday organizers announced that this year's 9th annual A3C festival would be extended to five days, running from October 2nd to October 6th. 

Apart from performances from some of hip-hop's hottest MCs, this year's festival will also included a film festival, as well as a Pro-Audio Seminar at Atlanta's SAE Institute.  A number of discussion panels will also descend on Atlanta for A3C to educate guests about the latest trends in hip-hop culture.  For more information visit a3cfestival.com. 

Last year's A3C Festival was stacked with big name performers, including Big Boi, Tech N9ne, Prodigy, Nappy Roots, and Twista.
