LateRooms.com - Busta Rhymes to Headline 2012 Brooklyn Hip Hop Festival

    BROOKLYN, NY, June 07, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival, a week-long celebration of the musical genre that was born in New York, is set to return to the city in July.

Busta Rhymes has been named as the headline artist for this year's event, which features a programme of panel discussions, competitions and other activities that culminates in a live concert.

One of the main features is the Show and Prove Super Bowl, which sees aspiring rappers competing for a chance to perform on the main stage.

More than 20,000 people attended the closing performance under the Brooklyn Bridge last year, when New York rap legend Q-Tip appeared alongside the likes of Kanye West, Black Thought and Monie Love.

With a similar number of hip-hop fans expected at this year's event, anticipation for the 2012 Brooklyn Hip-Hop Festival is growing rapidly.

The festival will take place from Monday July 9th to Saturday July 14th, with week-long passes available for $100 (GBP64.50) plus booking fee.

People heading to the final day's events only can buy premium tickets for $65, while general admission is priced at $30.

Hip-hop fans will find a wide range of hotels in New York at LateRooms.com, which recommends the Riverside Tower.
