...party's elusive host, Sriram P. Das '00, also a Crimson editor, is indeed a Harvard student with a flair for the finer things in life. His invite-only parties trace to November 1998, when Das and three friends hosted a hip-hop show after party at The Middle East. Thus began Das' self-proclaimed duty to provide an outlet for under-partied undergraduates. "Nobody else here has parties, so I might as well do it myself," quips Das, whose parents conveniently graced him with a Charles Square apartment before his junior year. With five official parties tallied since September...

Party-goers cut up the dance floor in ratty red t-shirts or recently bought Jasmine Sola tops. The D.J. played hip-hop and techno.

Next to them, Ghost Dog (Forest Whitaker) is both modern and ageless. His cyber-age artillery and acute aim make him the ideal hit man. Between gigs he plays hip-hop CDs in whatever car he has stolen...

...York City-based group comprising rappers Priest, Beans and Sayyid along with producer Earl Blaize, the Consortium makes music that could best be described as art-school hip-hop. The free-flowing lyrics on this album are inspired by poetry slams; the rhythms are stripped-down and direct, keeping the focus on the words. These songs are, by turns, grandly prophetic, perversely abstract and straight-up street. Far from a tragic epilogue, this is a welcome addition to the growing canon of outsider hip-hop...
