The Hip Hop Museum Closes Out Tour During Miami Art Week With Trina in Conversation With Museum Curators Pete Nice and Paradise Gray

On December 9, the Hip Hop Museum Tour closed out its six-city tour in Miami at Wynwood Studio in partnership with Mass Appeal. CÎROC Ultra-Premium Vodka sponsored the event. Hip Hop Historians Pete Nice and Paradise Gray curated the traveling exhibit.

In celebration of hip-hop’s fiftieth birthday, the Hip Hop Museum Tour told the stories of impactful hip-hop artists. The exhibit featured Hip Hop’s early years (1973-1990) and highlighted vital firsts in the genre’s history from block parties to stadium performances.

Guests explored the exhibit while DJ Vashtie curated the sound.

Miami native and hip-hop artist Trina co-hosted the museum tour’s finale. In a fireside chat, she chatted with Nice and Gray about the importance of preserving Hip Hop history. After the discussion, guests met the panelists.

The exhibit had a Jorit mural. Attendees watched the Italian street artist finish his work live. Viewers particularly enjoyed the “Mass Appeal Station.” The space looked like a New York City subway train station. Inside, it offered airbrush tattoos and manicures.

The Hip Hop Museum Tour started in New York City with Lola Brooke. After an excellent reception, the tour traveled to the A. Native ATLien. Baby Tate hosted the event and welcomed visitors to the exhibit at The Cellar at Southern Exchange. The discussion turned to the importance of preserving hip-hop and the genre’s progression over time. Kentheman hosted the exhibit in Houston, while Blxst anchored a fun night in Los Angeles. Before wrapping up in Miami, the show traveled to Charlotte, where Grammy-nominated rapper Rapsody discussed the importance of women in hip-hop. The Hip Hop Museum Tour served as a precursor to the official opening of the Hip Hop Museum in 2025.
