Princess Nokia:

Destiny Frasqueri, better known as Princess Nokia, is one of the most exciting rappers to come up over the past couple of years. She leans heavily into her Afro-Latinx roots, crafting seductive songs that speak to black womanhood, spirituali­ty and identity. Her shows sell out fast, so best to jump on this while you can. Check out “Brujas” and “Kitana” to get a taste of what she’s offering. 10 p.m. Friday, April 20. $35. 1015 Folsom, S.F. 1015.com

Muni Diaries:

Some 4,000 San Franciscan­s have written to Muni Diaries about the “hilarity” and “humanity that happens on our journeys between Point A and Point B.” And many of them have gone on to tell their stories more widely, both on their stage and on their podcast. Now, Muni Diaries is celebratin­g a decade of life with a 10th anniversar­y. The lineup is stacked (and includes a couple of Chronicle writers). 7 p.m. Saturday, April 21. $17.66. Elbo Room, S.F. www.munidiarie­s.com
