A couple of photos from the 2002 Asian Hip Hop Summit

These are just a couple polariods from the asian hip hop summit, a benefit show to help ease hunger in north korea.

The event took place at a park's gym down on normandie and olympic.

The multiracial crowd got a wide ranging lineup featuring some varied styles. I can't comment in detail, because I got there late, and I'm not that well versed in the state of the art of hip hop, but, it sounded pretty tight.







There was a "no gangsta rap" rule, but it was still pretty hardcore, even without the cartoon violence.

Positive energy flowed. There's much hope for the youth of today.
