Jogja Hip Hop Foundation
Jogja Hip Hop Foundation
(Yogyakarta, Indonesia)
Indonesia’s foremost crew stands in the cultural cross-hairs, rapping across language and other borders.
Hailing from one of Indonesia’s artistic well-springs, Yogyakarta, this sharp Javanese collective promotes tolerance and pluralism. Jogja Hip Hop Foundation takes on corruption and inequality with wit and hooks that meld global and indigenous trance rhythms, Indonesian pop and gamelan music, ancient Javanese poetry and literature.
JHF’s crew offers intros and comments in English on stage.
