Doug E. Fresh is one of the pivotal figures of hip-hop’s Golden Age, a “human beatbox” who can accurately imitate drum machines and effects with just his mouth and a microphone. His early hits with Slick Rick—”The Show” and “La Di Da Di”—are among the genre’s foundational hits. Funk Flex is more than just a DJ– he’s a hip-hop institution, a radio and club mainstay who has helped break some of New York’s biggest artists and biggest hits and continues to keep his finger on the pulse of hip-hop and R&B. Together they host the Hip-Hop Appreciation Park Jam & Barbecue, celebrating the art form in which they’ve invested their lives, in the borough in which it was born.
