“THE STRETCH ARMSTRONG AND BOBBITO SHOW”: Revisited
featuring DJ Sets from
DJ Stretch Armstrong (Plant Music) & DJ Bobbito Garcia (Kool Bob Love)
Opening set by
DJ Shortkut (Invisibl Skratch Piklz/Beat Junkies)
The Stretch Armstrong & Bobbito Show was broadcast out of Columbia University’s WKCR in the early 90s and launched the careers of hip-hop legends including Nas, the Notorious B.I.G, Jay Z and Big Pun. DJ Adrian “Stretch Armstrong” Bartos and Robert “Bobbito” Garcia turned their 1 to 5 a.m. radio show in to a launching pad for young artists on the brink of fame. Listeners tuned in weekly for the illest rhymes to hit the airwaves at the time. Legendary Bay Area DJ, Shortkut, will warm up the hometown crowd, paying homage to his contemporaries from the East Coast.
