Brooklyn DJ and producer J.PERIOD (The Hamilton Mixtape) is renowned for his "audio-biography" mixtapes—featuring icons like Nas, Q-Tip, Lauryn Hill, and The Roots—which have solidified his reputation as a top-tier producer, a trusted collaborator, and a groundbreaking musical historian. His long-running performance series J.PERIOD Live Mixtape transforms the traditional Hip-Hop stage show into a high-energy moment of record, captured live onstage in one take. At last year’s Summer for the City, J.PERIOD Live Mixtape electrified the sold-out New York crowd with performances from Hip-Hop icons, Big Daddy Kane and Rakim. This year, J.PERIOD returns to Lincoln Center with J.PERIOD Live Mixtape: Teachers & Storytellers Edition, a celebration of two of Hip-Hop’s most important and influential emcees, KRS-One and Slick Rick, along with some special surprise guests. Don’t miss the opening set by DJ Evil Dee. Run time: approximately 2 hours If you have any questions about this event, please contact Guest Experience at 212-875-5456 or guestexperience@lincolncenter.org.
