The ‘Furious 5’ and ‘Kurtis Blow’ are legendary! The trendsetters and are partly responsible for the creation of the billon dollar a year rap record industry, and the subculture called ‘Hip Hop’!. The Furious 5 are to Hip Hop what the Rolling Stones are to rock. As members of Grandmaster Flash & The Furious 5, they have toured the world, been the 1st ‘Hip Hop’ group ever to be admitted to the ‘Rock & Roll’ Hall of Fame, and their recordings are amongst the most sampled in the history of recorded Hip Hop. And now they’re back for 2010! And this time they bring another Hip Hop Legend along with them Kurtis Blow! Kurtis Blow became the first Rapper ever to be signed by a major label, he had the 1st certified gold record for rap (“The Breaks”) and became raps 1st millionaire..!

It was these guys who made ‘Hip Hop’ a household name on the strength of records like Freedom, The Message, Christmas Rappin, White Lines, The Breaks, Superrappin, Beat Street, New York, New York, Deuce, Survival, If I Ruled The World, Scorpio and Larry’s Dance Theme to name a few…

And if that wasn’t enough for you ‘Weapon of Choice’ brings you the finest Local Acts, DJ’s, Graffiti Artists and B-boys to make this event legendary and NOT to be missed!
