The Bronx is considered the birthplace of hip hop, and Aug. 11, 1973, the birthdate. At his sister's birthday party, DJ Kool Herc (Clive Campbell) used two turntables to create ongoing loops of music, especially the "break beats," which excited dancers, he shared with History.com. DJ Cool Herc and his sister Cindy Campbell are scheduled to be part of the event.

Also scheduled to participate: Nas, Wiz Khalifa, T.I., Cam'Ron, EPMD, Ghostface Killah, Lupe Fiasco and Slick Rick.
