IL Breaks 2004 is part of the Annual Hip Hop Awareness Week presented by the Urbana-Champaign Hip Hop Congress. The week consists of discussion panels, instructional workshops, performances, showcases, and lectures that focus on each of the four basic elements of hip-hop: B-Boying (Breakdancing), DJ-ing, MC-ing (rapping/poetry), and graffiti (art). The goal of the week long festival is to educate, entertain, and enlighten attendees to the multi-faceted quality of hip-hop culture. These events will take place at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign from Monday March 1st to Sunday March 7th 2004.
