Over the past three years, in celebration of the art and heart of Hip-Hop, Lincoln Center has presented concerts from local rap legends Rakim, J.PERIOD, De La Soul, MC Lyte, Pete Rock and many more. Closing out our 2025-2026 Beats, Rhymes & Sights program, we're spreading love the Brooklyn way with a BK Basement dance party for the ages, featuring MR.
