This month, Hakim has invited Zack Freeman (beats/ vokals) and
Romeo Alonzo (keys/ horn) to join him onstage for some real/raw entertainment. Prep your eardrums friends because this is gonna be good!

JazzBars featuring Hakim Be and Friends – A bar is a measure of music. A measure of music is simply a measure of time. From the original heart beat to the beat generation, music has gone through various evolutions. The distance between Jazz Poetics and Hip Hop Artistry amounts to the latest evolutionary leap. This live, improvisational and collaborative experiment exists in that footprint. Whether the it be the bars on the sheet music of a jazz musician or the hot 16 of an MC, every generation measures in songs. Every month at Jazzbah, a few musicians and a poet or two will give you another moment to remember. Fresh, funky & fun, step into our laboratory and see what we create. We don’t bridge the gap between Hip-Hop and Jazz, we eliminate it. JazzBars.
