This past August saw a number of events across the city to commemorate and celebrate the 50th anniversary of hip-hop’s creation. Lincoln Center’s Summer For The City hosted two events, which specifically landed on what was designated as Hip-Hop Week: J. Period’s Live Mixtape Gods and Kings Edition feat. Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, DJ Evil Dee, Buckshot Shorty, Smif ‘N Wesson and a collection of guests on August 10, Rakim and Rapsody with guests and a silent hip-hop disco DJ’d by DJ Spinna and DJ Rashida on August 11.
The J. Period Live Mixtape Gods and Kings Edition was an amazing night of hip-hop featuring an a collection of legendary emcees, who understood in the eternal words of The God Emcee that “m.c. means move the crowd.” Check out some photos below.
