Bahamadia is an icon of conscious and refined hip-hop. Hailing from Philadelphia, she established herself in the 1990s as one of the most respected voices on the underground hip-hop scene. In 1996, she released Kollage, a masterful debut album produced by DJ Premier, Beatminerz, and others—now widely regarded as a genre-defining classic. Her smooth flow, sharp lyrics, and instinctive musicality give each track a rare depth, blending jazz, soul, and urban poetry. A close associate of the Gang Starr family, she has collaborated with The Roots, Talib Kweli, Slum Village, and Erykah Badu. An authentic visionary, Bahamadia continues to inspire new generations and reminds us that hip-hop is above all about style, soul, and truth. For this concert in Cully, her calm, magnetic stage presence will be elevated by a live band and DJ.
