Over-30s 90s dance party with classic hip-hop, R&B and reggae spun live by Herbert Holler at Fabrika in Fishtown.
Herbert Holler brings his Freedom Party back to Fabrika on Friday, October 23, for Philly's Fourth Friday. This one is dedicated to the 1990s—the decade that delivered some of the best hip-hop, R&B, and reggae ever made—with Holler spinning live and Jermayne Gamble hosting. The set list pulls from the heavy hitters: Biggie, Mary J. Blige, A Tribe Called Quest, TLC, Wu-Tang, Janet Jackson, SWV, Jay-Z, Mariah Carey, DMX, Lauryn Hill, Buju Banton, Shaggy, Beenie Man, and Missy Elliott.
If you've been around the city's dance floors for a while, you probably know the Freedom Party. It's become a Philadelphia staple, held every fourth Friday at Fabrika, a dinner theatre in the heart of Fishtown run by a collective of artists and visionaries who stage burlesque, circus, fire, aerial, and drag. Over more than 23 years and 1,000 parties worldwide, it's earned a reputation as one of the most iconic old-school dance floors in history, built on a repertoire of classic hip-hop, R&B, reggae, house, rock, disco, and soul from the 1970s through the 2000s. This particular night focuses on the 90s, and the room is open to over-30s only, with ID checked at the door. True to the party's reputation, the whole thing is about strangers becoming one crowd, dancing and singing together.
