MC Shan once rapped that they used to do it out in the park, and now, it looks like Tools of War intends to bring it back there. In a recent press release, Tools of War and co-sponsors Rane and Serato announced this summer’s line-up for their annual True School NYC Park Jam series.

Founded by Jorge “Fabel” Pabon and Christie Z-Pabon, the True School NYC Park Jam is a ten-year running celebration of Hip Hop culture and the art and history of DJing. This year, Tools of War will host three distinct series – Spanish Harlem Hop, Crotona Park Jams and Digger’s Delight – throughout the entirety of July and August.

A number of legendary artists are scheduled to spin during the series, including Lord Finesse, Johnny Juice, Large Professor, Grandmaster Caz, Tony Touch and many more.
