Event: THE BOX THAT ROCKS: 30 Years of Video Music Box and the Rise of Hip Hop Music & Culture

Art and hip-hop are high on my favorite things list, so I’m really excited about tomorrow’s opening event for THE BOX THAT ROCKS: 30 Years of Video Music Box and the Rise of Hip Hop Music & Culture at Brooklyn’s MoCADA.  The exhibit celebrates Video Music Box’s impact on urban music and culture. Created and hosted by hip-hop pioneer Ralph McDaniels, it’s known as a major kick-starter for several rap, R&B and reggae artists’ careers.

I don’t know how many of you remember being huddled around the TV jammin’ to those grainy videos played on the show back in the day. Good times…

If you can’t make tomorrow’s reception don’t worry the event runs through May 28th. See here for more information on the event and the artists featured.
