OUR STORY
Classic Flow, a dynamic Hip-Hop collective hailing from Northwest Arkansas, started as a dream in September 2023 by a passionate DJ/Dancer couple who initially connected through their shared love for Hip-Hop.
During the 50th year of Hip-Hop Anniversary, founders Van Dang (Poppin’ Sunshine) and Ambrosia Johnson (DJ Afrosia) seized the opportunity to establish a platform that celebrates classic, raw Hip-Hop culture with their premiere event Rhythms,Rhymes and Breaks. Since then, the rest is history.
Classic Flow distinguishes itself by seamlessly merging the four elements of Hip-Hop (Emceeing, Breaking, Djing and Graffiti), delivering an electrifying experience that educates and entertains. Through collaboration with local/regional dancers, DJS and Northwest Arkansas’s pioneering breaking crew, Breaking Habits, Classic Flow aims to keep Hip-Hop alive and thriving.
Since the collective's inception, they’ve performed alongside the esteemed NYC collective, Espherat Asherie and had the honor of opening for the legendary
Wu-Tang Clan.
