  • The B-Boy Summit Internationally Acclaimed B-Boy/B-Girl Event
    THE B-BOY SUMMIT INTERNATIONALLY ACCLAIMED B-BOY/B-GIRL EVENT Produced by No Easy Props OVERVIEW The B-boy Summit continues to be a major trendsetter in Hip-Hop street dance, art and music culture. Established in 1994, The Summit presented innovative ideas in Hip-Hop culture, offering a conference forum complete with competitions, performances, panels, workshops, and a marketplace for consumer friendly products marketed toward the Hip-Hop community. Never content with success, The B-boy Summit continues its mission to bring the hottest street dance, art, and music above ground to the masses. The B-boy Summit has grown into an internationally acclaimed 3 day festival incorporating all aspects of Hip-Hop in different plateaus, including the most intense battles, rawest circles, theatre performances, a DJ/MC Talent Showcase and live aerosol art painting. The B-boy Summit was created in 1994 out of the need for a community orientated Hip-Hop event that encompassed knowledge of the history of Hip-Hop culture and the skills of B-boying and B-girling. At that point in time B-boys and B-girls didn’t have a platform in which to come together, dance and pay homage to the traditional dance of Hip-Hop. Each year the event has expanded to encompass B-boys, B-girls, MCs, Aerosol Artists, and DJs from across the globe, steadily building into what is now the foremost Hip-Hop cultural event in the world. More recently, The Summit has become one of the most important events for Lockers, Poppers, Freestyle and House Dancers to take part in during The Summit’s Funk Fest.

  • Kutmasta Kurt.” That Was Like the Beginning of the Strain
    ROCK KUTTIN’ IT WITH KURT 44.www.importtuner.com REDNECK GAMES KUTMASTER KURT TEXT BY JOEL MARASIGAN Hip hop music had a universal fiber when it was—in the spirit of MTV—brand-spanking new. Hip hop was sung and chanted. Hip hop was more than just music. It was a style: a life style, a spirit, a feeling. Today’s hip hop has lost a lit- tle of its elegance and originality mainly because artists exaggerate the “money, hoes and power” stereotype. There are a select few who remember hip hop’s roots and its inten- tions. There are a select few who are still accepted when they remove their headphones and backpacks and don the pink fur, ice the grill and jump in the Range. 05.03.2nr.45 son they were like, “We don’t want your name on it. We’ll pay you, but you can’t put KutMasta Kurt.” That was like the beginning of the strain. At the time I wanted to wrap-up a project with Keith (the Masters Of Illusion project)—and because I had already been working with Motion Man (who was on the back burner for 10 years)—I had to finish Black Elvis. We still went on to do the Dr. Dooom and Masters Of Illusion albums and I still helped with the Matthew album. But after that I was really just Keith’d out. He wanted to keep going, but I didn’t like the direction and I needed to take a break. He was- n’t too happy about that.

    xzibit napalm album free mp3 download Xzibit. Alvin Nathaniel Joiner (born September 18, 1974 in Detroit, Michigan), better known by his stage name Xzibit, is an American rapper, actor, and host of MTV's Pimp My Ride. He began his music career as a member of the Likwit Crew, a loose collective of West Coast rappers including King Tee, Defari, and Tha Alkaholiks. He released his solo debut album 'At The Speed Of Life' in 1996 and has since released 5 more albums, his latest being Full Circle, released in 2006. His new album Napalm is expected to be released sometime in 2012. Born in Detroit, Michigan, Joiner moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, with his father when he was ten years old (his mother had passed away when he was nine years old). Around this time, as he did not have any entertainment, he began writing poems. Around the age of 13, he started getting into trouble with the local police. By the time he was 14, he served a short stint in juvenile detention. Finally around 17 years old he had been expelled from several Albuquerque high schools for allegedly raping his guidance counselers. At that point, he moved with $3,000 to Los Angeles, California in his purple and black Geo Tracker to pursue his dream. Xzibit got his start as a member of the Likwit Crew a loose collective of West Coast rappers including Tha Alkaholiks and King T. After touring with them in 1995, Loud Records released the feisty young rapper's debut album, At The Speed Of Life (1996).
