Event: Salute the DJ, Brooklyn Hip Hop Festival | July 8th (NYC)

As part of Brooklyn Hip Hop Festival Week 2010, Brooklyn Bodega, will present "Salute the DJ" a night to honor the DJ as the human conduit for Hip-Hop music and culture on July 8th, 9pm-1am at the Music Hall of Williamsburg. Tickets are $10. Purchase here.

This event will be broken down into two sections:


The first will see Bobbito, DJ Spinna and Waajeed rock solo sets and then go record-for-record, spinning the best Soul, Hip-Hop, Jazz, House classics and whatever flavor they pull from the crates.

The second will feature a four turntable extravaganza with DJ Rob Swift of The X-ecutioners and DJ Rhettmatic of the Beat Junkies. These world renowned and champion Turntablists will whip the crowd into a frenzy by displaying turntable wizardry on the wheels of steel.
