Beats, Rhymes & Sights

Lincoln Center celebrates the next fifty years of artistry, spirit and history of Hip-Hop in 2024 with a series of can't-miss concerts, must-see documentary and narrative film screenings, and one-of-a-kind live conversations with the artists that move the music and the culture forward. Your featured player on the turntables for many events will be the one and only Mixtape Assassin, J.PERIOD. Renowned for his "audiobiographical" mixes for icons like Nas, Q-Tip, Lauryn Hill, and The Roots, J.PERIOD's bona fides are as untouchable as his contact list, so expect special appearances by A-List MCs, producers, and influencers. Add in some surprise guests and a closing night dance party and you can hear for yourself why Lincoln Center has become one of NYC's hottest spots for Hip-Hop.
