Egg LDN Pres: HIP HOP, RNB, GRIME & RAP

A London night of hip hop, R&B, grime and rap at Egg London, the concert and performance venue on Vale Royal in the north of the city, presented under the Egg LDN banner.

Egg LDN Pres: HIP HOP, RNB, GRIME & RAP gathers several strands of urban music under one evening at Egg London. The line-up is presented across hip hop, R&B, grime and rap, with a separate Egg LDN Pres: HIP HOP strand also on the bill.

The styles have distinct roots. Hip hop and rap developed in the Bronx in the 1970s, built on rhythmic spoken delivery over sampled and looped beats. R&B grew out of American soul and funk, while grime emerged in East London in the early 2000s, combining fast, sparse production with MC vocals.

Egg London is a concert and performance venue at 5-13 Vale Royal, London N7 9AP. The night suits anyone who follows these styles and wants to hear them programmed together.
