The Rub is an institution in Brooklyn. What started in 2002 as a classics and hip-hop party held on the first Saturday of every month at Southpaw became a movement.

As a crew and separately, DJ Ayres, DJ Eleven and Cosmo Baker have released over 50 mix cds, 10 records, won the 2006 Scion Mix contest, and appeared on MTV Mixtape Mondays, in The New York Times, Spin, Vice, XXL, The Fader, Urb (Next 100), NY Press (Best Party in NY), Village Voice (Best Party in Brooklyn), Entertainment Weekly and countless other magazines and websites. In 2006 the boys took the party on the road, touring 40 cities in the United States, Canada, Europe and Asia. Like the party, The Rub radio program is an unparalleled mix of hip hop, disco, 80s, reggae, funk, house and everything in between. Get On Our Level!

I find this flyer really funny, since Ricky Martin came out of the closet yesterday.  As if we didn’t know he was gay.  Yea-Right!  I know he was gay since he was in Menudo.

This week we have a very special guest at Good Vibes DJ Reborn (Ubiquita NYC).  I’m so excited to be rockin with her at Soda on this Saturday.  She continues to inspire me in her versatility both creatively and professionally, from her contributions as Musical Director and live onstage DJ for the Off-Broadway Hip-Hop Theatre hit, Flow, her regular appearances at NYC legendary museum events and tastemaker venues, to her work in the community with various youth development and arts organizations.  DJ Reborn will be bringing not only her creative talents but also her positive spirit.

Take a listen to Cure & Cause an 80 minute live mix inspired by situations, events, and reflections.

Josh Asen and Jennifer Needleman followed a group of Moroccan Hip Hop artists who share a single dream: to rock a professional concert for a hometown crowd. Unfortunately, resistance is strong in their society and resources scarce. With the help of the American filmmaker, they appeal to the American Embassy for funding and begin the journey that will lead to the ‘I Love Hip Hop in Morocco’ festival.
This film reflects the thoughts and dreams of the true future of the Arab world: its youth. These are not the images portrayed by the media; these are the real people. And their views on America, Islam, and the world in general, might surprise more than a few people around the globe.

Showtime: 6:30-8:30pm

Tickets will be available at 6pm

Afterparty will be held Bar Sepia
11-whenever
