Stretch’s #LifeIn5

Share This Video

Internationally recognized DJ Adrian Bartos aka Stretch Armstrong joins #KenCenHipHop​ to present his #LifeIn5​. The 1990s Hip Hop legend programmed the “Stretch And Bobbito” radio show, which received high praise from the NY Times and was recognized as “The Best Of All-Time” by the Source Magazine. As a club DJ, the progenitor of “open-format” (incorporating a multitude of musical genres) has taken his unique sound across the globe. Currently, Stretch consults brands via his Music Dept. platform, contributes a column on cassette culture to Medium.com‘s Cuepoint, and hosts Stretch and Bobbito Radio on Apple Music.

#LifeIn5​ is a #KenCenHipHop​ digital storytelling initiative providing artists with an opportunity to share the top five hip hop songs that tell their story.

Take part in this ongoing video series and collaboratively generated playlist by sharing your #LifeIn5​ on social media.
