Pete Rock to be Honored at Upcoming “Noisemakers” Event

Straight off the heels of his Noisemakers interview with Bun B at SXSW last week, XXLMag.com has learned that Hot 97 radio personality Peter Rosenberg has already planned his next event.

Seminal 90s producer Pete Rock will be sitting down with Rosenberg on April 7 at the 92Y, located in New York City’s Tribeca neighborhood.

Rock’s recording, producing and remixing career is one of the most distinguished in rap history having collaborated with Nas, Common, Mary J. Blige, Ghostface Killah, Busta Rhymes, Public Enemy and Run-DMC, among many others.

The beatsmith—like previous Noisemakers guests DJ Premier, Q-Tip, ?uestlove, Raekwon, Talib Kweli and Bun—will be honored throughout the night as house band The Noize pays tribute to his music.

Tickets for the show are on sale now. —Elan Mancini
