At the Retro Jam in NYC a concert featured Bobby Brown, Keith Sweat, Rakim and KRS ONE. Inside, KRS ONE energized a hometown crowd out of their seats as he ripped thru a set of classics and new material including the song 'the Deejay' produced by DJ Revolution. Joined on stage by Chiefrocker Busy Bee, Hakim of Channel Live, Chip Fu of the Fu-schnickens, and new artist Beast, KRS ONE elicited cheers from an appreciative crowd who remained on their feet for the entire show. Tour manager Mondo One said, "A lot of the songs the Teacha does are by Primo so what's better than to have DJ Premier live on stage with KRS ONE.".In a backstage interview with Chip-Fu, he expressed these thoughts on the Stop The Violence Movement 20th Anniversary Tour." It's like 360 degrees, everything comes back in cycles. Sometimes it takes the same voice or the same ideas to make a change. Right now we're going thru what happened years ago with the drugs and guns in the neighborhood, no one paying attention to the youth and for the Teacha to actually just say 'it's time for this to happen again', it's a beautiful thing. And for the emcees now that are current to take part in the situation is a beautiful thing."
