Alternative hip hop “Family Tapes” live at Starr Bar, Bushwick – 1/31/26

Known for their booming jazz beats and captivating rhymes, production is handled by Sun Cut Flat and is rooted in the 90’s golden era crate-digging aesthetic. Additional primary members include Derek Cedar (NYC), stephenxjones (ATL), and Mistah Levy (NYC). Embraced by a growing audience of hip hop fans across the US and beyond, Family Tapes is part of a widening movement bringing the conscious / backpack element back the forefront of rap. Their music stands independently without profanity or toxic themes, making for an engaging and uplifting live experience full of thought-provoking lyricism, hard hitting jazz/soul beats, and sharp delivery. Join Family Tapes in Bushwick at Starr Bar on Saturday, 1/31 for an evening of open-board chess and a live performance of their original music (doors at 9:30 PM).
