Hip Hop World
On August 11, 2026 — the 53rd Anniversary of Hip Hop — we throw the Hip Hop World Launch Party at Covert Café in Portland. A party this size doesn’t happen without a crew. That crew is the launch team, and this is where you join it.
No experience required — just show up and care about the culture.
