It is a blessing when remarkable people allow us to interview them. Those conversations are reflections of us both, that’s why it’s imperative that what we ask matters.
One of the people we were blessed to speak with was Hip Hop artist DJ Knapp!
On August 11, 2023, he will join Sixman and a lineup of great artists in Grand Rapids, MI for HIP HOP 50Th Anniversary Music Fest live at top-rated venue The Pyramid Scheme. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime event sponsored by WYCE Radio, NOXX and COOKIES GR, Wasted Brand Clothing, Debo Scotty (Power Moves Only), Vitale’s On Leonard, THIS ENT, and Feeding America (West Michigan).
With this cultural milestone in mind, we asked him THIS GOOD QUESTION: What excites you about celebrating the 50th anniversary of Hip Hop and why is this milestone so culturally and socially important?
DJ Knapp answered, “I’m totally hyped about the chance to commemorate 50 years of Hip Hop! Music runs through my veins, day in and day out.
Being a DJ for various groups, including the legendary Nappyhead Assassins where I began, has been an incredible journey. The vibes, beats, and energy of Hip Hop have always been a part of me, and I can’t wait to celebrate this milestone in the genre that I live and breathe.” | THIS ENT
