Countdown to Culver! Busdriver: Experimental Hip-Hop

Learn more about Countdown to Culver events at www.culvercenter.ucr.edu/index.php?content=countdown. Busdriver (Regan Farquhar) is a leading figure in the resurgence of the alternative Hip Hop scene that emphasizes the experimentation of form and radical hybridization of styles. His lyrics display a mental dexterity and intellectual breadth that is by turns playfully Dadaist and socially hard-hitting. Using a gatling gun vocal delivery and eclectic musical accompaniment, he is one of the most important, and entertaining, creative forces in the genre.
