BOOMBOX returns [SAT.12/2] to celebrate our 17-YEAR ANNIVERSARY with the LARGE PROFESSOR [Main Source/NYC] + RHETTMATIC [Beat Junkies]!

BOOMBOX is back [SAT.12/2] celebrating our 17-YEAR ANNIVERSARY with the legend LARGE PROFESSOR [Main Source/NYC] + our Beat Junkie brother RHETTMATIC!!

When we started back in 2006 we just wanted to throw a party WE would want to go to. where we could play OUR music, OUR way, for OUR friends and family, with some of OUR favorite guest DJs, artists, & producers. The fact that we’re still here in 2023 shows that it’s way bigger than us. YOU continue to show up every month, YOU love this music just as much as we do, and it’s YOUR love and energy that have created the party and vibe we were searching for all those years ago. So thank YOU, Los Angeles!

It is in that spirit that we welcome back hip hop legend, super-producer, and rapper extraordinaire LARGE PROFESSOR for an exclusive DJ set all the way from NYC! His production prowess has been instrumental in crafting the sonic palette of hip hop having created iconic tracks for the likes of Nas, Eric B. & Rakim, Kool G Rap, A Tribe Called Quest, Busta Rhymes, & countless others…let alone his Main Source work + solo material! He is one of one and we couldn’t be more hyped to have him back on our decks for a rare west coast appearance.

We’re also joined by a Los Angeles DJ legend and frequent Boombox assassin, the Beat Junkies‘ own RHETTMATIC!! One of the dons we always looked up to as we were coming up, he was also one of the first to show us love and support the party. We love him for that and always will. That said, he also happens to absolutely destroy the place every single time he rocks! We are honored to have him back on the set for this special occasion.

If you’re about that life, grab your DISCOUNT PRESALE TICKETS on this page while they last. Let’s gooo!

Since September 2, 2006, Boombox has provided a home for Los Angeles hip hop lovers to gather every first Saturday of the month and celebrate the genre’s most respected DJs and producers. Celebrating their 15-year anniversary in 2021, they’ve gained a faithful following of music aficionados who all share one common trait: the love of hip hop culture.

Residents Inka One, Ben Diggin, Analog, and Mantron have created a signature sound and energy that is authentic, inclusive, and fiercely committed to promoting the culture and artistry that hip hop has blessed us with. For the past 16 years, Boombox has given Los Angeles a home for hip hop connoisseurs who understand the importance of the DJ. Since its inception, their mission has remained pure: to provide an honest hip hop/DJ-centric night that caters to the working-class crowd. No frills, no shiny aesthetics; just the music and DJ skills speaking for themselves.

Boombox has made an indelible impact on Los Angeles’ rich music culture and has introduced audiences to some of Los Angeles’ finest, such as Flying Lotus and Blu, while simultaneously giving Angelinos an opportunity to catch hip hop legends like Pete Rock, DJ Quik, Ali Shaheed Muhammed, 9th Wonder, Marley Marl, Stretch & Bobbito, Mix Master Mike, & countless others. Boombox is a destination for the world’s best hip hop DJs to come play the music they love; it’s as simple as that.

In a time fraught with division, Boombox stands tall as a Los Angeles staple where old friends unite, where new ones are made, and where all are welcomed and invited to experience a special night where the hip hop DJ shines.
