In the lead-up to the 65th annual Grammy Awards on Sunday, Feb. 5, the Recording Academy and CBS present “Grammy House: Where the Stars Align,” a pop-up experience for “music makers, culture creators and rising industry leaders.” The house will be open from Wednesday, Feb. 1, to Friday, Feb. 3. Programming includes an emerging artists showcase, a producer panel and the second annual #GrammysNextGen Party.
The destination features a dedicated space, Universe of Hip-Hop, an exhibit celebrating 50 years of hip-hop music and culture through the lenses of photographers who were there, including Janette Beckman, Michael Lavine, Danny Clinch, B+ (Brian Cross), Greg Noire and Gunner Stahl.
Designed and curated by artist Cey Adams — the founding creative director of Def Jam Recordings — the space will feature iconic imagery from dozens of artists, including Run-D.M.C., five-time Grammy host LL Cool J, The Notorious B.I.G., 2Pac, Kendrick Lamar and 21 Savage.
Grammy House Programming is curated in partnership with The Revels Group and Coup D’Etat Music.
