Alaska's never been known as a hotbed for the hip-hop scene, but a recent competition in Anchorage showed that a growing number of rappers, DJs and break dancers are taking an interest in the burgeoning subculture-including Juneau's own DJ Astronomar.
"My main intent in going to the event was not to win, but to help the hip-hop scene in Alaska grow," said the disc jockey, otherwise known as 21-year-old Marlon Lumba. "I really wanted to interact with other members of the hip-hop community."
In addition to enjoying the company of other artists and fans, Lumba took first place in the DJ competition for the second year in a row. The contest was part of Juice 3, a hip-hop jam held on June 11th in the Tesoro Sports Centre parking lot alongside the second annual Drive Car Show.
