The 6th Annual Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival (BHF)

Brooklyn Bodega, producers of the 6th Annual Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival (BHF), is excited to announce this year’s headliner – De La Soul .

Since 1989, De La Soul ; Pos, Dave and Mase, have been the very cornerstone of Hip-Hop music and culture. Since the groundbreaking album “3 Feet High and Rising” to “Grind Date” De La is simply one of the best to ever do it.

“To be honest, we have been trying to get De La Soul to headline the Festival since we first came up with the idea in 2005. On many levels they are the perfect flag bearers for our mission to use Hip-Hop as an agent of change. For over 20 years they have traveled the world inspiring MC’s, producers, DJ’s and fans alike. I can think of no better artist to usher the Festival into its new home in Brooklyn Bridge Park.” – Wes Jackson, Executive Director, The Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival

In past years, the Festival has featured headliners; Brand Nubian (2005), Big Daddy Kane (2006), Ghostface Killah (2007), KRS-ONE (2008) and Pharoahe Monch (2009). This year, De La Soul will be the anchor of the amazing six-day-long Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival, performing on Saturday, July 10 th alongside a variety of Old School, New School, Funk, Soul, local and International artists on the DUMBO waterfront.
