Funk Flex reigned over New York's mammoth rap scene throughout the 1990s, capable of making or breaking artists with his high-profile position at the top-rated radio station in America's top radio market, Hot 97. By the mid-'90s, he was also the weekly DJ at one of New York's top clubs, the Tunnel, and also had his radio show broadcasting on Los Angeles' Power 106, America's second largest radio market. Furthermore, Flex began releasing commercially successful mix albums in the mid-'90s, beginning with the first volume of the long-running 60 Minutes of Funk series. At the end of the decade, his popularity only continued to rise, landing him a coveted position on MTV with his own daily show, Direct Effect.
"We are really excited that Funk Flex will perform for our fans for the first time at Dunkin' Donuts Park," Yard Goats General Manager Mike Abramson said. "This is a thank you to the best fans and sponsors in baseball, who have once again shown tremendous support for our club."
The Hartford Yard Goats return to Dunkin' Donuts Park for their next homestand on Tuesday, August 17th and host the New Hampshire Fisher Cats (Toronto Blue Jays affiliate) at 7:05 PM. Tickets for all home games are on sale by calling 860-246-GOAT (4628), by visiting online at www.yardgoatsbaseball.com, or in person at the Click It or Ticket Box Office at Dunkin' Donuts Park.
