AFTERMATH OF THE OFFICIAL UNDISPUTED, 9TH ANNUAL HIP HOP SUMMIT FOR THE HEAVY WEIGHT HIP HOP CHAMPIONS OF THE YEAR.

 
 2011 was indeed a tough year filled with great challenges for the hip hop summit team but we managed to once gain mark the 9th annual Uganda hip hop celebration with love and great positive affirmations from the growing hip hop communities. The Journey of hip hop in Uganda has contributed to the youth Voice in various restricted and deprived social expression platforms especially the creative practices. Celebrating the youth through hip hop in Uganda has continued to prove and show that there is a growing community of young men and women who are aspiring to experience hip hop through various creative means, whether It's Breaking, emceeing, Djaying, Graffiti Art, knowledge, and Street fashion the reconnection to the indigenous emcee continues to lead us in the direction of opening up the hearts of young people to celebrate their culture tradition and heritage.
