NEW YORK — Several of Harlem’s hometown heroes will take part in the upcoming event inspired by Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson’s Oscar-winning documentary “Summer of Soul.”
Rap veteran Doug E. Fresh, R&B singer/actress Teyana Taylor and hip-hop superstar Cam’ron — all of whom hail from the upper Manhattan hamlet — will be featured on the lineup of the Harlem Festival of Culture, a reboot of the 1969 event referred to as “The Black Woodstock.”
The event is set to take place on Randalls Island from July 28 through July 30. Ticket and VIP package information can be found at harlemfestivalofculture.com.
