Iconic brand presents a fresh and innovative event where Hip-Hop meets Hipster. The NorthStar Group and The Source Magazine, the first major Hip-Hop periodical in the world, are breaking ground in a new way – producing the first ever SOURCE360 event. The #SOURCE360 and BAM team up and present music and film events as part of The #SOURCE360, Sep 19 & 20.

The Source has kept its finger on the pulse of urban music, lifestyle, and culture for the past 25 years. In September, America’s oldest and most venerable hip-hop publication celebrates its anniversary with The SOURCE360, a weekend of events at venues throughout Downtown Brooklyn—featuring a conference, marketplace, concerts, and festivals—that reflect on the rich history of a now-global, four-decade-old art form. The Source and BAMcafé bring together some of today’s most influential and diverse emcees, with two nights of free performances: Pass the Mic: Ladies First—A Night of Women Emcees (Sep 19) and International Hip-Hop Night (Sep 20). BAMcinématek and The Source present a film series that highlights a wide range of influences and milestones within hip-hop culture, including big-screen appearances by some of the music’s most iconic performers.

“We are thrilled to be partnering with BAM for this celebration of culture, music, and art,” said L. Londell McMillan, chairman of North Star Media Group, the producers of The SOURCE360 celebration. “BAM has long been the home for some of the world’s most adventurous artists, and has embraced hip-hop over the years through its film, dance, and music programming. I can’t imagine hosting such a momentous cultural event in Downtown Brooklyn without BAM!”
