SUMMARY:Grandmaster Flash
DESCRIPTION:Grandmaster Flash\nTHE BIRTH OF A CULTURE: CELEBRATING 50 YEARS OF HIP-HOP\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEXISTING TICKET HOLDERS GUARANTEED ENTRY UNTIL 7:15PM \nSTAND-BY SEATING AFTER 7:15PM\n\n\n\nNEW DATE! NOW COMING TO PURDUE ON NOV. 4TH! LEARN MORE\n\n\n\nABOUT THE SHOW\n\n\nWho knows what hip-hop would sound like without Grandmaster Flash? A musical pioneer in every sense of the word\, Flash transformed the turntable into an expressive and complex instrument\, and introduced the world to record scratching\, beat juggling\, and breaks. His mastery of these techniques elevated DJ’ing to an art form\, while his legendary parties in the South Bronx became the cradle of hip-hop culture. \n\n\n\nThis audiovisual lecture/demonstration is an educational\, entertaining\, and interactive experience that takes you on a journey with one of the founding fathers of hip-hop. As the architect of the quick mix theory\, Grandmaster Flash will show you how as a teenager\, he used his knowledge of electronic repair to experiment with different styles and techniques and bridge the gap between musical genres—incorporating elements of funk\, soul\, and disco into his mixes. Now\, as we celebrate 50 years of hip-hop\, a whole new generation will experience a once in a lifetime hip-hop history lesson from one of the creators and legends in the genre. \n\n\n\nServing as host and panelist will be Dr. Marlo David\, director of African American Studies and Research Center in Purdue University College of Liberal Arts. Matthew Joseph\, postdoctoral research assistant in belonging\, equity\, and inclusion in Purdue’s John Martinson Honors College\, will serve as a panelist for the event.  \nVISIT ARTIST WEBSITE\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA party in the Bronx on August 11th\, 1973 is widely considered to be the birthplace of hip-hop.

SUMMARY:Omar Apollo
DESCRIPTION:“Apollo’s music stands out in the generosity of his lyrics and the vulnerability of his performance.” – ROLLING STONE \nIn just a few years time · Omar Apollo has gone from teenage strummer to one of the most hotly-tipped R&B artists of his generation. The Indiana-raised Mexican-American singer-songwriter picked up a guitar at the age of 11 and never looked back. His success began when he had 3000 followers on SoundCloud and his friend paid him $30 to upload his music to streaming services. His single “Ugotme” quickly gained traction · and to date has accumulated over 30 million streams in the US across all platforms. \nAfter two back-to-back sold-out headlining tours · memorable festival appearances at Camp Flog Gnaw and Lollapalooza · and a network television debut on Late Night with Seth Meyers · the now 23-year-old Apollo has transitioned from the freeform D.I.Y. creativity of those beloved earlier records towards a more focused development of his sound. He’s making deeper connections between his music and his Latin roots while laboring over each song in ways he never would’ve before. Part redefinition · part enhancement · the autobiographical new material he’s been working on for his upcoming projects promises to bring him to another level in his career. \n  \n
