DJ Zita presents
:::QUEENDOM:::
Fly Ladies Reppin the 4 Elements of Hip Hop
Sat February 12, 2011 @ La Pena, Berkeley

QUEENDOM seeks to reverse that by placing women at the center of this art form. Witness this all-female show as the ladies of hip-hop represent all 4 elements – graf writing, breakin’, MCing & DJing – as they always have.
