MIGHTY presents DJ Premier vs. Pete Rock: The Battle

MIGHTY will play host to the bay area’s debut of DJ Premier vs. Pete Rock: The Battle, on Friday, September 30th, at 9PM.

Bay area staple and world-renowned Beat Junkie DJ Shortkut will be holding down the opening slot with Fran Boogie hosting the night.

Perhaps Hip Hop’s most respected producers, the New York based DJ Premier and Pete Rock have been releasing classic material for 20+ years. Premier’s Gangstarr releases, with partner Guru, were instrumental to the culture, not to mention his collaborations with Jay-Z, Notorious BIG, Nas, Rakim, Big L and KRS-ONE to name just a few. Pete Rock’s release with partner CL Smooth, Mecca and The Soul brother, is critically acclaimed and birthed classic tracks such as “They Reminisce Over You (T.R.O.Y.)” and “Straighten it out”. Pete Rock has collaborated with a slew of Hip Hop’s elite including Nas, Slum Village, A Tribe Called Quest, Slick Rick, Talib Kweli and Run DMC, and the list goes on and on.
