The exclusive launch witnessed stellar performances by BOXOUT.FM, an online community radio station and BUDXSTREET collaborator, who perfectly set the vibe for the evening. This pulsating performance was followed by London DJ and party starter Shama Anwar, who juggled between both old and new school hip-hop music to get the crowd grooving to her eclectic beats. The evening was taken to the next level by DUB FX, Australian musician and worldwide street performer who surfed seamlessly between reggae, hip-hop, samba, drum ‘n’ bass, and dubstep. As leading hip hop artist and rapper DIVINE took the stage, he had the whole audience enthusiastically grooving to his latest tracks with his stellar live performance.
