THE 5th ANNUAL BROOKLYN HIP-HOP FESTIVAL
The 5th annual Brooklyn Hip-hop Festival is about to take place. The festival is a celebration of Hip-hop music and culture. Focusing on the legacy of the music and culture and the progression of social change and community. In past years artists such as Ghostface Killah, KRS ONE, Big Daddy Kane, Blu and Exile, EPMD, Chubb Rock, Fat Joe, DJ Premier have performed during the festival.
As expected this year will not be a dissapointment what so ever. To keep things at a level playing field an effort has been made to keep your budget right. Instead of setting ticket prices, donations are encouraged, and nobody will be turned away. This year Pharoahe Monch, DJ Premier, Styles P, Smif N Wessun, J Period, Dead Prez, Torae and Marco Polo, and Brown Bag All Stars will be performing. More acts will be announced.
Wes Jackson, the founder of the Brooklyn Hip-hop Festival and Brooklyn Bodega, has put a lot of heart into vision. Wes has over 15 years experience as an entrepreneur and innovator in the music business. His career began producing concerts for Nas, The Roots, The Dave Matthews Band, and De La Soul. He then went on to start his own promotions company, Seven Heads Promotions. Seven Heads was instrumental in launching the careers of Mos Def, Talib Kweli and others.
