A showcase founded in April 2009 by Peasant Podium, TheArtofLyrics is the only venue left in the birthplace of hip-hop for...

1. independent MC's to rock mics live before a discriminating audience,

2. for fans of high caliber lyricists to celebrate their favorite wordsmiths in a live setting,

3. for a team of documentarians to capture the once in a lifetime lineups using video, photography and audio

As the only underground hip-hip showcase left in the Bronx, TheArtofLyrics takes place every 3rd friday of the month at THE POINT CDC (940 Garrison Ave) in Hunts Point, BRONX, NYC.
