The first artists slated to bowl include Hip-Hop pioneer Kool Herc, Dana Dane, Doc Ice of UTFO, DoItAll, Sugar Hill Gang, Daryl “Chill” Mitchell and Jam Master Jay’s son Jason Mizell Jr. The event is part of the Mama Luke Organization’s efforts to raise funds to fight breast cancer.

The first Hip-Hop Pin Drop takes place January 6th, 2011.
