The National Hip-Hop Museum (NHHM) will cap off 2024 with Hip Hop Holiday Honors, Saturday, Dec. 28, from 5:00 to 11:30 p.m., at the historic Bethesda Theater in Bethesda, Md.
“I can't think of a better place to hold our largest induction ceremony to date,” said NHHM Founder and Collector Jeremy Beaver. “This is the culmination of five years at the museum of intense work to preserve and establish hip-hop as America's most important cultural export.”
NHHM Executive Director and Multi-Platinum Recording Artist Master Gee will serve as emcee as the museum inducts Kool Moe Dee, The Treacherous Three, Marley Marl, Lords Of The Underground, Soul Sonic Force, DJ Jazzy Jay and The Fearless Four into its Hall of Fame.
The evening kicks off at 5:00, when VIP guests can enjoy NHHM’s Pop-Up Retail Experience featuring one-of-a-kind items from The Hip-Hop Shop, including vinyl, sneakers, hats, trading cards, action figures, posters and art. Adding to the excitement will be live hip-hop painting by NHHM Resident Artist Kevin "Scene" Lewis, while Marley Marl and DJ Jazzy Jay will both be spinning.
NHHM Hall of Famer DJ Kool will host the VIP Pop-Up Experience and display his newly received Platinum Award from The RIAA, making him the first-ever Platinum Recording Artist from Washington, D.C.
In celebration of the 40th anniversary of BEAT STREET, one of the very 1st Hip-Hop movies which featured Kool Moe Dee and The Treacherous Three, Kool Mo Dee will reenact the movie’s famous Xmas rap scene. Guests also can enjoy food and drink items from the theater, with a holiday-themed menu – named and designed by NHHM and printed as center labels on actual 12" vinyl records.
From 7:00 to 8:00, guests can watch Master Gee lead a podcast with the inductees. The induction ceremony follows at 8:00, when NHHM Historian Jay Quan (noted hip-hop historian, lecturer, narrator and writer) will bestow these legends with a custom trophy, Hall of Fame jacket, commemorative medallion, custom fat lace hat and more swag.
At 9:00, doors open to general admission ticket holders. The concert begins at 9:30 with performances by Soul Sonic Force, The Fearless Four, Lords of The Underground, Kool Moe Dee and The Treacherous Three.
