Hip Hop in 1974 was a celebration of life, gradually developing its four original elements - DJing, Breakin , MCing, and Graffiti writing to form a cultural movement. Thirty two years later the foundations laid down by Hip Hops true pioneers have exploded in many directions across all corners of the globe.
Thanks to the worlds oldest and most respected grass roots Hip Hop organization, The Universal Zulu Nation Hip Hop culture is cemented in history, and will continue to uplift and inspire generations to come, with its undeniable energy, dynamics, and the momentum it creates.
In celebration of 32 Years of Hip Hop Culture and to spread the message that the Month of November IS declared International Hip Hop History Month - the 2006 Zulu Nation Supa Jam - taking place over four days and traveling through Sydney, Adelaide, Brisbane and Melbourne - pays homage to the roots of Hip Hop Culture and celebrates the True essence and excitement of what Hip Hop was meant to be.
To ignite the fires for Australias first national Zulu Nation Supa Jam - Hip Hop culture anniversary celebration, live and direct from the birth place of Hip Hop, is LORD FINESSE (D.I.T.C), ROC RAIDA (X-Ecutioners/D.I.T.C), and Q-UNIQUE (The Arsonists/Rock Steady Crew) with DJ ECLIPSE (Non Phixion) - plus an array of our freshest homegrown MCs, DJs, Hip Hop Crews, Bboys and Bgirls - guarantees this a show not to be missed by any true supporter of Hip Hop culture.
LORD FINESSE, the Funky man in the flesh - one of the founding members of the legendary Diggin in the Crates crew, and the person responsible for discovering Harlems own legendary BigL. As a producer, Lord Finesse has worked with some of Hip Hops greats, such as Notorious BIG, Big L, Dr Dre, Fat Joe, and Capone and Noreaga to name a few.
Also known as the Ace of Trades for his mastery as a Lyricist, multi-platinum producer and a turntable technician, Lord Finesse will be performing a live MC set, spitting legendary hits off his albums; The Funky Technician, The Return of the Funkyman, The Awakening, and From the crates to the Files.
ROC RAIDA gained prominence in the late 1980s as part of the champion turntablist crew the X-Ecutioners, who gained their reputation by utilizing the techniques of beat-juggling; the manual alteration between individual kick and snare sounds to create original drum patterns in real time. In 1995 Raida was crowned the DMC World Champion, and last year on a panel at the Rock-n-Roll hall of fame in Cleveland, Raida was appointed Grandmaster by some of Hip Hops founding fathers, such as Kool Herc, Grand Wizard Theodore and scratch evolutionist DST. Roc Raida also a member of the D.I.T.C crew will be gracing the decks for a solo set as well as DJing for Lord Finesse.
Q-UNIQUE brings the grime and filth from the streets with the presence of fine art. The Brooklyn born, Bronx raised member of the legendary Rock Steady Crew/Zulu Nation, and the front man and key producer for world renowned group, the Arsonists, has been proclaimed by many as their savior through personal and rough times. As a member of the Arsonists Q-Unique found international success in the early to mid nineties with their albums As the World Burns, and Date of Birth. Q-Uniques solo career allowed him to expose the demons of his past and his triumph over them, with the release of Qs highly anticipated album Vengeance Is Mine, resulting in another Q-Unique masterpiece. As a producer he has worked with the likes of Raekwon, Ill Bill, and for the La Coka Nostra project featuring House of Pain. He is currently working with Korn member Feildy on Qs new album, which is yet to be released.
