LIVIN' PROOF 4th Birthday @ The C.A.M.P. on 26th November
Thursday 17th November 2011 | Osh
On November 26th, London’s most respected Hip Hop clubnight celebrates their 4th birthday. Born in a small Soho basement, the Livin’ Proof collective have quickly grown from strength-to-strength. Since day-one they have been putting on roadblock parties all across London from warehouse parties, Cable, Camp, Concrete, Cargo to initmate bungalow 8 & Marketplace shows, but this time celebrate in the intimate basement of the CAMP in Old Street.
Grown largely through word-of-mouth, they have a unique vibe: a party where guys and girls have stage-dived to Wu Tang; where people run on stage to demand the DJ re-loads a track; a place where despite the chaos – everyone leaves with a smile on their face, tells their friends and make sure they come back for the next party. It really has to be seen, to be believed.
Their reputation has meant that in the last 4 years, they have shared stages with Ali Shaheed Muhammed from A Tribe Called Quest, Jay Electronica, Hudson Mohawke, Pharoahe Monche, Frank Ocean, Slum Village, Kelis, and Raekwon. This year saw them take on a mini Germany tour with packed shows in Berlin, Cologne and Aachen, they host a weekly radio show on www.ntslive.co.uk and are to date, the only hip-hop collective to have had a regular slot on the seminal Boiler Room (http://boilerroom.tv) online streaming show.
If you want to see why everyone is talking about London’s liveliest hip-hop party, we recommend you head down to their 4th birthday party where you can catch the full crew including Khalil, Snips, Budgie, a special AV visual set from DJ Rags, host The Last Skeptik and special guest Shortee Blitz.
Doors: 9pm – 4am
