- Share via
From Times Staff and Wire Reports
The Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center in downtown Oakland will end its yearlong moratorium--don’t call it a ban--on rap concerts when Los Angeles rapper King T and three local groups appear at the facility on Nov. 21. Security will be tighter than in the past, and officials at other arenas with rap concerts coming up have similar plans. There have been several incidents of violence the last two years at rap concerts in the San Francisco Bay Area.
