Music News - The Biggest R & B/Hip-Hop Event Of The Year!

<b>The Biggest R & B/Hip-Hop Event Of The Year!</b>

20 June 2002 - 0 Comments

Get your bounce on, cause Auckland is about to get a slice of the pie and witness what's been said to be the biggest Hip Hop Tour to ever hit the country. In an all star line up the 'Westcoast Block Party' has been dubbed by many as the mini 'Up In Smoke Tour' (the highest selling Hip Hop concert of all time, and the highest selling music DVD in 2002 worldwide.)

Are you ready to party??

Heading 'The Block Party' is the Multi-Platinum 'Up In Smoke' Tour artist KURUPT with his protege and younger brother ROSCOE, who is enjoying the success of his hit collaboration with Multi-Platinum Rap artist Nelly.

Along side Kurupt is the highly anticipated rap start - DJ QUIK who, after 5 Platinum albums is hitting the stage to serve his fans what they have been waiting for. Of course, he is not travelling alone and will be bringing his partner in crime HI-C who is featured in many of Quik's hits.

Next on the bill are the group behind the legend - THE OUTLAWZ. They were with 2Pac from day one and his music lives on through them. Having featured on all of 2Pac's multi million selling albums, these guys have proved they can definatley hold their own. The Outlawz are enjoying strong air play here in New Zealand, with their smash single 'Worldwide'. Not only will they be performing their chart topping siingle, they will also be performing an exclusive tribute to the one and only 2Pace himself .. LIVE ON STAGE!

The party doesn't stop there, because KAM is also on the bill to perform hits from his two smash hit albums as well as outside hits including 'Havin' A Fit', which has now surpassed the hit status to become a craved club anthem.

Everyone knows that a party ain't a party without a splash of the old skool flavour. With this in mind, we knew there were only two artists that would be able to take it back to the old skool with hits that everybody could enjoy. Everybody is getting ready to 'Bust A Move' with platinum artist YOUNG MC and do the 'Wild Thing' beside the Multi-Platinum TONE LOC, who are both featured artists on the 'Westcoast Block Party'.

DECEPTIKONZ are also featured on the bill.
