J Dilla and Rakim are set to be honored by the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts with special performances.
The cultural center is putting on a season of concerts in the coming months to celebrate the history of Hip Hop and jazz.
On March 30, Robert Glasper, Derrick Hodge and the Black Radio Orchestra will celebrate both Dilla and jazz legend Duke Ellington with a one-off show at Concert Hall.
Following that, on April 19, Rakim and DJ Jazzy Jeff will join forces with bandleader Ravi Coltrane to form “The Rakim & DJ Jazzy Jeff & Ravi Coltrane Project.”
