Hoodstock™ 2012 is a remarkable music fest that gathers hip hop fans, artists, and DJs from all over the world back to the roots of Hip Hop in Miami 305 to exhibit the latest and most innovative hip-hop singers, B-Boy dancers, urban graffiti artists, videographers, and DJ performances to an audience of thousands.
Hoodstock™ is one of the most widely anticipated events in the Hip Hop community. The very first Hoodstock was held in 1994 right in the heart of Miami in the Wynwood community. It changed the essence of the music of that day; becoming a new Hip Hop sound that rose from the local artists.
Hoodstock™ attracted thousands of people. Throughout the years the press has reported from 1000 to 10,000 people in attendance. Hoodstock™ brought money, fun, and was the start of a positive change in the area.
Hoodstock™ has spawned events all throughout the United States and beyond. The last Miami Hoodstock™ was held in 2008. Today we bring Hoodstock™ back to its roots and this year it will be bigger and better than any other. Why? because we are not only about the performance, we are going to change the face of Hip Hop again as we focus on business - body, soul and mind. This year it is about giving back! It’s about empowering new artists, working with serious DJs and affluent industry professionals, and gathering together music aficionados; everyone interested in being a part of the vibe of the historic stage and in opening doors.
Hoodstock™ has built the careers and supported the dreams of many new artists and this year will be no exception. As a large part of making a vibrant Miami community, we invite you to open the door to investing in the dreams of the local artist; empowering their lives through self-development and business education.
