 The wide interest in the event has led to the establishment of more courses being offered in Hip Hop Studies at Trinity.
-The Festival continues to be held in partnership with Nomadic Wax, a company that produces hip hop films and events world wide, Temple, the Trinity chapter of the Temple of Hip Hop, and Notable Productions. It is also funded and supported by most of the academic departments and a wide variety of campus clubs and organizations.
