"The Crotona Park Jams, now in their sixth year, are recreations of the legendary park jams of Hip Hop's earliest years, growing up in the Bronx. At the annual Crotona Park Jams, the DJs are the show and they decide if, which and when MCs can get on the mic, during their sets, as it was in the beginning. Please join us and guests from all nations, in the Bronx this July as we celebrate the true culture of Hip Hop with legends and pioneers rocking the turntables and the mic. Not only do legends command the stage, master practitioners of every element can be found throughout the audience."
