"Hip Hop is like one of the children of jazz music" – Nas
Jazz roars through its instruments while Hip Hop spits its words out with a fiery breath! Jazz & Hip Hop is a first-ever a partnership of MCG Jazz, James Street Gastropub and local hip-hop artists. Hip Hop artists perform to live jazz accompaniment and musicians, poets and hip-hop artists come together to share a brief history of how the links of Jazz and Hip Hop are tightly woven.
