Brooklyn Hip Hop Festival Re-Cap (Photos)

Yesterday, July 10th, The Brooklyn Hip Hop Festival took over DUMBO Brooklyn with a full-on hip hop spectacle. The day included performances by De La Soul, Pete Rock & CL Smooth, DJ Premier, Black Moon, Smif N Wessun, Curren$y, Fashawn, Raaka (Dilated Peoples) and Black Milk, Money Making Jam Boys (Black Thought and crew) and special pop-up performances by Masta Ace, Nice & Smooth, Dres (Black Sheep), The Cold Crush Brothers, Group Home and more. The festival also included a full vendor village, and a whole "Family Day" area, curated by (NY Kings collaborators) F.O.K.U.S., which featured performances (Circa '95, DJ Melo-X), and activities for the kiddies as well. Check some flicks of what went down below.
