Since 2001, Freestyle Mondays is New York's epicenter for rhymes and good times. The last surviving Bastian of the NYC Rawkus-era Hip-Hop, Freestyle Mondays, is an open mic as diverse and engaging as the city that birthed it. MCs come from all over the world to spontaneously bless the crowd with impromptu rhyme schemes while backed by some of the citys most gifted musicians recreating the most beloved beats in rap history. Its a weekly event thats faithful to the past while boldly stepping into the future.Monday is the new Friday - The second-longest running Hip-Hop open mic in the city's history, Freestyle Mondays offers a consistent constant stream of MCs all for the low, low price of absolutely free. Thats right, there is no cover charge for the rappers, musicians or audience. Hosted by celebrated battle veteran iLLspokinn and sultry songstress Mariella, the ever-rotating X-O band serves up a reinterpretation of a classic rap beat as the citys most promising young newcomers and esteemed veterans step-up one at a time to freestyle a verse. Theres no limit to how many times they can rap in a night or how many rappers can perform, so youre guaranteed to never see the same show twice.
