The True School Park Jam

Grandmaster Caz, Biz Markie, Kid Capri, DJ Supreme, Afrika Bambaataa, Kool DJ Red Alert und Jazzy Jay haben nach 25 Jahren mal wieder zusammen aufgelegt. Und zwar im Rahmen der “True School Park Jam Series” in der New Yorker Bronx. Tools of War arbeitet im Moment an dem entstandenen Videomaterial und bringt sehr bald eine DVD heraus. Einige Impressionen gibts unten in den beiden Teaser Videos von den Jams, eine angenehme Zeitreise…today we reminisce

Afrika Bambaataa, Kool DJ Red Alert, and The Original Jazzy Jay reunite on the wheels of steel for the first time in over 25 years. Many have neglected the fact these individuals are primarily responsible for the genesis of hip hop culture. Noisemaker Media’s Mark Carranceja was at the right place and at the right time to capture this historic moment in hip hop history. Carranceja is quietly becoming one of the most sought after filmmaker/music video directors in the industry and through this short edit, he shows us why his unique vision embodies the essence of hip hop culture.

The True School Park Jam Series is made possible by Christie Z Pabon [Tools of War, DMC USA] and Fabel Pabon [UZN, RSC, Tools of War]. Their hard work and dedication to the preservation of DJ and hip hop culture allows for once in a lifetime moments like this.
