Co-owned by legendary producer Statik Selektah and Clifford Cho, the East Village hotspot served as the epicenter of New York culture, bringing together classic hip-hop heritage, streetwear nostalgia, and live radio broadasts under one roof.

The evening started strong with an exclusive Columbia Bugaboo event featuring legendary NYC figures:
- DJ Evil Dee bringing classic hip-hop soundscapes behind the decks.
