Doggie Jams draws thousands to Downtown Greenville for annual concert

Yahoo25-04-2025
GREENVILLE, N.C. (WNCT)- A busy weekend in Greenville started with the 12th-annual Doggie Jams concert hosted in the heart of Downtown Greenville by restaurant favorite, Sup Dogs.
The event was headlined by grammy award winning artist, 2 Chainz and DJ group, Cheat Codes.
Doggie Jams returns to Greenville for 12th year.
Event preparations started the morning of Friday, Apr. 25, with stage set-up, sound check, and Sup Dogs staff members helping to stock drink stations along Five Points Plaza. Last year the event attracted thousands of people into the parking lot, and organizer Bret Oliverio says he expects the same number, if not more at this year's event. The twelve years of tradition started from one idea, from none other than Oliverio's brother.
'I mean, my little brother started this in 2010, I believe, and it started out just like 25 people out here in a parking lot,' Bret Oliverio said. 'So, you know, I knew I wanted to sort of turn this into a mainstream music event. So, it's tough because every year you sort of have to keep topping yourself. And, you know, people expect a great show and we're ready and excited and we're lucky that you and all these new graduates in the community support it and support us.'
Sup Dogs hosts the annual event each year, attracting artists like DJ Diesel, also known as Shaquille O'neal, as well as Lil John in past concerts. Some of the event proceeds also benefit the Downtown Greenville Partnership, which will benefit all the local businesses in the area.

Collaborator on New Justin Bieber Album 'Swag' Says He Was ‘Mad Cool'

Putting aside whatever speculation, rumors and chatter surround Justin Bieber in recent months, one thing remains certain: his talent as a musician is undeniable. Going one step further, the process of working with Bieber has largely received high praise from those collaborating on his albums. That fact stood true again on Bieber's newest album, Swag, which features collaborations with several names and various artists. This includes Cash Cobain, whose debut studio album, Play Cash Cobain, was released in 2024. During an interview with GQ, Cobain spoke about the process of working with Bieber and explained how the duo came together to create the song "Swag." Cobain revealed that he messaged Bieber after the 31-year-old showed love by posting his song Trippin on a Yacht. 'I wrote bro like, 'We got to get some work in,'' Cash recalls. 'So I'm like, all right, boom—took bro's number down and then we was chopping it up for, I don't know, a couple days.' Cash said that Bieber reached out to him when he was in New York and met the pop star at his house, where there were several producers, rappers and artists. The 27-year-old rapper then detailed to GQ what the creative process was like working alongside Bieber, calling him "mad cool." 'You might think Justin Bieber would be on some other s---, but bro is mad cool. It was just natural...' Cash recalls, saying that Bieber was very loose in communicating a specific vibe that he was shooting for when making the song. 'He was just like, 'Swag. Swag, bro.' He on some swag s---. That's [all] him right there.' Cash went on to praise Bieber's first song on the album Swag, saying that the first song stood out to him, calling the beat something he's never heard anyone "really try to emulate." Bieber's 21-song album features credits to a few well-known names, including 2 Chainz for background vocals on "Yukon." The same song gives credit to Eminem as a composer-lyricist, but as Billboard details, that stems from an interpolation of a line from Eminem's "Untitled," a song on his 2010 album on New Justin Bieber Album 'Swag' Says He Was 'Mad Cool' first appeared on Men's Journal on Jul 17, 2025 Solve the daily Crossword
