BACK TO THE CITY 2009
 
Nowadays, it is not often that you find a hip hop event which truly celebrates the spirit and culture of hip hop as a whole – as it was meant to be. The third annual ‘Back to the City’ hip hop festival takes over the streets of Newtown, Johannesburg again.
 
The one day festival on Freedom Day, the 27th of April, presents a day of live music, street art, break-dancing, art installation, skateboarding, film, street fashion, gaming, speakers and panel discussions.

This year there will be over 20 live performances and DJ's will entertain throughout the day. Featured artists include Archetypes; Hymphatic Thabs; HHP; Tumi; Zaki Ibrahim Ben Sharpa; ; DJ Kenzhero; Zuluboy; Prokid; Lemonka mix tape featuring Tuks; DJ Medicine, Fifi, the Anvils and many many more.

One of the aims of the “Back to the City” initiative is to take a neglected part of Newtown and transform the space with and colour and life, creating awareness as well as sustainable revenue to the surrounding companies. Ten graffiti crews will utilise the highway pillars as their canva**es, creating colourful masterpieces in the city. This year also features the Ice Collectivo, a French Graffiti crew from Marseilles. They will team up with Faith 47, Kasi, Rasty and Hac One over a two day workshop taking place at the Alliance Francaise in Diepkloof Soweto as well as take part in the festival.

Skateboarding and BMX ramps will also be constructed to add another element of street culture to this outdoor initiative. Ritual Stores will host a fine and digital arts exhibition as well as film screenings, which will feature a collective of artists from various backgrounds. These art pieces will be up for sale as well as the Ritual Store merchandise.

 ‘Back to the City’ also celebrates the fifth element of hip hop – knowledge of self. This manifests in a daytime educational summit. This portion of the programme is made up workshops and panel disucssions. Topics include music business, sponsorship, distribution and retail. Featured speakers and panellists include TS Records, Pioneer Unit,  Buttabing and MTN Xploded.

When:  Freedom Day (27 April) 2009

Where:   Coner Bree and Henry Nxumalo streets, Newtown, Johannesburg

How much:   ‘Back to the City’ has always been a free event however, due to a reduction in sponsorship and the current global economy, a minimal R30 ewill be charged

Im not saying people should not complain. And i agree with them.The scratching was WACK. You just seem to complain all the time. Say thanks @ times, show some love. Stop trying to put down everything about SA. That's all you ever do.The SAMA's, the ACCENT's, people choosing to do the music they do, HYPE, EVERYTHING dude. U GOT A PROBLEM WITH EVERYTHING.like all of this here you really could have just ignored. It was a good review @ the end of the day. That's what people will look @. I don't think the "FACTS" that you say have been misconstrued will have an effect on how people look @ the album. The consequences are not that huge,so is it really worth it going six pages deep and u and T going @ it like u supposed to ? Ya'll both need each other in this game as far as i am concerned and ya'll are straining ya'll's relationship over petty little "NOTHINGS". WORTH IT ? I don't know.

is it really little (and thats a question)

as a label head that needs to sell a cd...

if a review made by a magazine says your product is one thing and it aint (which gives the wrong impression and potentially cost him a few potrential album buyers in the process) is he not in the right to seek it be corrected...

well music is all about how u hear something and my review is based on that. so must i write according to whoes ears? mine or the record label maybe D PLANET can explain and school me since i dont know much about the industry....

Yo Ttp, next time you review any album that comes out of Dplanet's camp, remember to call him so he can tell you what to write. If you'd rather not call him, just give the artist 5/5 and remember to mention how great of a CEO Dpleezy is.

So are you supporting the idea that journalists can just write anything they want, even if factually incorrect?

If Hype did a piece on you and they said you were a 3ft tall Mexican homosexual would you be cool with that?

Just in case you don't know the difference between fact and opinion, let me break it down for you...

Fact:
"The album has 12 tracks all produced by J Dilla. It was recorded in New York in 2001.

Opinion:
"I didn't like the album, it lacked a clear vision and direction. The tracks sounded as though they had been thrown together in a hurry."

I think this is the third time I'm saying it... I don't care what opinion a journalist offers. I don't care if the journalist likes what they are reviewing or not. All I care about is that it is factually correct.

ok D Planet regulate HEY, ur artists deverse a 5/5 cause Zubz got a cla**ic ne! good then lets make B Sharpa sell 10,000 copies 1st then u can come talk to me.actually how about you give press a review to put in for you so we are factual about your Artists. i'll be reviewing the Rattex please send me pointers on what to write please so i can also give him 5/5.this is one of the reason y we dont sell we bitch and bitch the whole day about what? NOTHING....i dont see anybody breaking records, its not the 1st time D planet you complain about stuff. i respect you for putting cats on and have no problem with u ripping my review mara FACTS as u call THEM are WE ARE NOT SELLING CAUSE WE FOCUSING ON THE WRONG THINGS.i had N.A.S.A and DJ Lemonka call me and thank me  for reviewing their album saying that it didnt matter what i said but the fact i put their album was on National platform and their sales increased Nationally.Rather than sit and point out small things how about we do promo in cd stores, perform at taxi ranks,do school rather than sit on the internet and complain. Call me and ASK since u reviewed the album which track can make YFM playlist, Metro fm or which track can make an impact...WE have a serious problem less good hip-hop is played on radio and heard B SHARPA is good hip-hop.i think B SHARPA album can be bigger than it is....
