"We celebrate hip-hop because it is more than just music," Milwaukee alderman Khalif J. Rainey, founder of Hip-Hop Week MKE, said in a statement. "It is artistic expression, community connection and a force for social progress all in one."

Once again concerts will be a part of the mix, but as was the case for the first two iterations of Hip-Hop Week MKE in 2018 and 2019, there'll be presentations as well.

The only celebration of its kind sponsored by a city's government, Hip-Hop Week MKE this year includes shows with Moneybagg Yo, Jadakiss and more.
