Legendary DJ CUT KILLER, true institution of French rap and talent scout, promises a historic set crossing decades of French hip-hop with legendary scratches and timeless classics.
At Arena Futuroscope, URBAN CORNER offers a nostalgic celebration of authentic French rap. This September day pays tribute to the pioneers of French hip-hop, creating a privileged moment of communion for old-school rap enthusiasts who grew up with these artists and wish to relive the magic of the early ages of the French hip-hop movement in all its authenticity.
