UNHEARD: City Sampling Workshop w/ Chef West

Since the birth of Hip Hop, sampling has been a core element that makes the culture unique. Unlike classical music, which requires many instruments and professional studios, sampling needs only simple equipment to create. Some call it plagiarism, others call it tribute, but when used well, sampling produces classic track after classic track. From Nujabes to Kanye West, Travis Scott to Tyler, the Creator, how do these artists use sampling to create lasting works? And can the city sounds we hear every day give our own music a local flavor?

Join us for a workshop with viral Cantonese cooking and rapping Instagrammer Chef West. Learn how he captures sounds from Hong Kong streets and samples them into original Hip‑Hop tracks.
