DJ Kool Herc brings the Bronx to Hau Latukefu’s house party

DJ Kool Herc brings the Bronx to Hau Latukefu’s house party

Raised in Queanbeyan, Country NSW, Hau Latukefu is a world removed from hip hop’s ground zero in New York City. But like his Tongan heritage, he’s fully immersed in the culture and works hard to find his own hip hop voice. As one half of Koolism, Hau is a card-carrying pioneer in the local scene. And when Koolism is nominated for an ARIA award, Hau comes face to face with another pioneer, the legendary Bronx DJ Kool Herc. Will Hau get the nod of approval from the father of hip hop?
