It's a Family Affair: When 1Xtra went to Hot 97's Summer Jam!

Sunday 5 June 2016 and all roads stateside led to New Jersey's MetLife Stadium for one of the East Coast, no scrap that, America's biggest hip-hop music festivals; Hot 97's Summer Jam. Naturally, your favourite music station, along with Charlie Sloth was in the house and we've noted six reasons why this year's festival was one of the best. Expect some surprises along the way!

1. If you know anything about hip-hop from the 00s, you will understand why Fat Joe and Remy Ma on stage. Together. Was a big deal!

2. What's Hip hop without these legends? Nothing! #MOP #antedup

3. Amongst the many big names there, DJ Khaled brought out the gully God himself, Mavado... #Sospecial

4. That time when Travis Scott reminded you why he is THAT hot.

5. From the old school to the new school, Desiigner kept it 100 with Panda...

6. Um, can we just have a moment of silence (or noise) for this please?

7. We lied - we couldn't narrow it down to six moments #sorrynotsorry... Can we just have a moment of silence (or noise) for this please? As always, G.O.O.D Music brought the pain and shut. it. down.
