Let’s face it: it’s been almost two years since its release and still people can be heard wailing “CONCRETE JUNGLE WHERE DREAMS ARE MAAAAAAADE OF” as the definitive modern New York City anthem. Well, we (as well as our friends at Nabewise and Stuff Hipsters Hate) say NO MORE! Jay, your reign is OVER!

On June 5th, Nabewise, Stuff Hipsters Hate, Bear Flag, and Let ‘Em In will present the first ever Brooklyn Anthem Bash at Glasslands, and they want YOU. Do you think you have what it takes to write the song that will unite everyone from Williamsburg to Coney Island to that scary A train stop by JFK that you wouldn’t even dream of going to without pepper spray and a machete? Then upload your jam to a soundcloud account and email the link to brooklynanthembash@gmail.com with the subject line “Brooklyn Anthem Bash Submission”, and you could get the chance to win a whole day’s worth of recording time at Let ‘Em In Music in Park Slope! (As well as Alicia-Keys-levels of superstardom, of course…)

Deadline for submissions is May 13th, so GET CRACKING! Oh, and did we mention that we’re one of the judges? We have a pretty serious sweet tooth and are not above accepting “gifts”. Just saying … (TOTES JK ROFL we can not be bought IRL just on TWITTERS)
