Black Thought of The Roots To Host The Lyricist Lounge’s 20-Year Reunion Party


Black Thought

Sponsored by AllHipHop.com, Rocksmith, Real Talk NYC, and Fusicology, the party will bring together performances from Bush Babies and Homeboy Sandman, along with several surprise performances in a legendary “ALL-STAR Cypher.”
Beyond Wednesday, the “Lyricist Lounge 20 Year Anniversary” celebration will continue with several commemorative events throughout New York following the kickoff party, including outdoor concerts in city parks in partnership with Summerstage and Celebrate Brooklyn.
Paying homage to the pioneers of Hip-Hop culture since 1991, the Lyricist Lounge has sought to promote up-and-coming raw artists, and in doing so, has facilitated three albums, seven domestic tours, two seasons of an MTV sketch comedy, called The Lyricist Lounge Show“, and two DVD releases.

The “Lyricist Lounge 20 Year Anniversary” All-Star Reunion is open to the public – Hip-Hop fans, documentary filmmakers, and Lyricist Lounge alumni can expect a host of surprise guest appearances.
