At the “Birth of a Culture the 4 Elements Block Party,” see the iconic Grandmaster Flash and his friends during a free show in the Bronx as part of Summer Stage.
The best DJ at a time when DJs were the stars of the Bronx’s burgeoning hip-hop scene, Flash is responsible for technical and stylistic innovations that helped shape the culture in its infancy. Flash is bringing several of his friends and fellow pioneers of the culture to cut some of hip-hop’s most iconic records and to celebrate their contributions to the birth of a hip-hop culture that has gone global yet is inexorably woven into the story of America.
The show’s on Friday, August 4, at Crotona Park.
