The one and only international Hip-Hop Festival
It is the only one, at least for me. The only event I still cover, as I retired from this type of work years ago now. It definitely feels like home now. I know the main venue like my pocket, the outdoor hip-hop village, and it is always a pleasure to see all these familiar faces each year. After their return last year (because of COVID-19) I thought that this year would be my last. I am getting too old for this, 3 days in a row used to be fun when I was young... now it is hard for me to work nonstop for 2 days straight. So I figured out a way to work, where I don't burn all my energy early in the day and save myself for the hot stuff later in the evening.
Plus the organizers are so understanding, I bet they will hand me a wheelchair next year. Yes, I said next year, because I decided to come back next year and maybe for their 10th anniversary in 2025 if they still want me. I will then seriously reconsider tiring from this... but who knows... anything can happen in 2 years!
Down below is a selection of pictures from these amazing 3 days. For the first time, it was a Fujifilm Coverage. Everything was shot with 2 Fujifilm X-H2s and the Fujinon XF 8-16 mm f/2,8 R LM WR, XF16-55 mmF2.8 R LM WR, and XF 50-140 mm f/2,8 OIS WR!
