WOW. This summer is shaping up to be an incredible music filled season with a return to Hip Hop's glory. Here in NYC, there are a number of concerts and free events that will keep my neck snappin' for weeks. I reported earlier that there will be a 25th anniversary concert celebrating Video Music Box in Central Park (July 18), the 4th annual Brooklyn Hip Hop Festival headlined by KRS One & DJ Premier (July 12), MC Lyte's free concert in Brooklyn's Prospect Park (July 13th) and now the Reunion Of The Crooklyn Dodgers! The Crooklyn Dodgers were an all star lineup of Brooklyn's top emcees produced by legendary producer DJ Premier. The group came together for 2 classic singles inspired by Spike Lee's 1994 film "Crooklyn". "Crooklyn" was Spike's love letter to his youth and experiences growing up in Brooklyn in the 70's. The Crooklyn Dodgers expressed this same love for Brooklyn over 2 of the hardest beats Premo ever created. On Saturday, June 28th, come out to Prospect Park to witness Chubb Rock, Special Ed, Masta Ace, Jeru the Damaja, O.C., Buckshot, Ali Shaheed Muhammad and DJ Premier together on one stage. I am in the house for sure and will be on hand to capture this great moment. Check for more info HERE
