Backspin productions and The Rock Steady Crew are
pleased to announce the Rock Steady Crew 29th Anniversary, a
celebration of the legendary B-boy/B-girl crew with four
days of festivities from July 27th through July 30th in the
New York City and New Jersey area.
The Rock Steady Crew, noted for maintaining and preserving
the origins of hip-hop culture through b-boying, will
celebrate its 29th Anniversary this year with a host of
events including an underground celebrity basketball game,
the 2nd Annual Spy Awards, an invitation-only B-boy/B-girl
Battle, and free outdoor concert. |
A monumental community event that honors deceased members of
the crew and celebrates hip-hop culture both past and
present, The Rock Steady 29th Anniversary attracts deejays,
B-boys/B-girls, emcees, and over 20,000 hip-hop supporters
from around the world. This year, Rock Steady Crew brings
together GZA and Masta Killah of Wu-Tang Clan, Big Daddy
Kane, Large Professor, Rhymefest, Beat Nuts, and many more
surprise guests to celebrate 29 years of the championed
B-boy movement and Hip-Hop’s underground celebrities.
With Crazy Legs’ involvement and participation in the
forthcoming videogame B- Boy™, Sony Computer Entertainment
Europe is also supporting the Rock Steady 29th Anniversary.
Hip-hop heads will be the first to play the game and show
off their b-boy gaming skills in B-Boy the videogame on
PlayStation®2 and PlayStation® Portable (PSP®)! B-Boy will
be released on PS2 and PSP this fall.
Rock Steady Crew President Crazy Legs, the host and
organizer for The Annual Rock Steady Anniversary, states the
yearly event is the “authentic hip-hop experience for
everyone”. “This is a pilgrimage for all,” Crazy Legs
states. “People come from all around the world to attend the
anniversary to bridge the gaps between cultures through
hip-hop.”
Through the Spy Awards, a prestigious honoring for a new
generation of B-boys/B-girls, Rock Steady Crew looks to
sustain the art form and keep the movement growing. The 29th
Anniversary will celebrate the hip-hop culture through its
acceptance via underground, mainstream, lifestyle brands,
music, business, and throughout many integral subcultures.
