West Lafayette, Ind. – The REPRESENT TOUR with Waka Flocka Flame, TOKiMONSTA and D.R.A.M. will perform at 8 p.m. Oct. 21 at Purdue University's Elliott Hall of Music. This performance is presented by the Purdue Student Concert Committee with support from the Student Fee Advisory Board.

Waka Flocka Flame: The rapper, who penned hits like "O Let's Do It" and "No Hands," has undergone an artistic transformation since his 2010 debut "Flockaveli." He's experimented with his sound but always with the focus on growing as a rapper. More recently, Waka Flocka Flame has collaborated with Girl Talk and Freeway in 2014, and this year has performed with Big Gigantic at Lollapalooza and appeared on the Vans Warped Tour.

TOKiMONSTA: The Los Angeles native is known for her take on indie electronic, rhythm and blues and dance music. She has been featured on various large-scale radio programs such as "BBC Radio1," "NPR," "BBC World Service," "J Wave," "Studio Brussels," "Radio Nova" and "KCRW." LA Weekly ranked her as the No. 1 female DJ in Los Angeles. Resident Adviser did a full feature on her for their "Breaking Through," a rising artist series.

D.R.A.M.: The rapper, singer and producer is known for "Cha Cha,"  "Broccoli" (featuring Lil Yachty) and his most recent single "Cute." He takes musical cues from people like George Clinton and Bilal, while showing appreciation for what squads like Dipset did for hip-hop.
