For generations, hip-hop has found a stage at Newark Symphony Hall.

From Queen Latifah, Digital Underground and Monie Love in 1990 to MC Lyte, Slick Rick, Redman, Wyclef Jean, Treach and more, some of hip-hop’s most influential voices have performed under our roof.

In 2023, that legacy came full circle when brought its Hip Hop 50th Celebration of Jersey’s Finest to Newark’s First Stage, honoring the artists and communities that helped shape the culture.

On Hip-Hop Recognition Day, we celebrate a movement that changed music, language, fashion and the world, and Newark’s place in its story.
