The Cultural Services of the French Embassy in partnership with TRACE Magazine are proud to present I Kiffe NY - French Urban Cultures Festival , from Oct. 6 to Oct. 28.

Compagnie ACCRORAP dance has gained its specific character and originality in search for authenticity through inner collisions and conflicts.

For French choreographer Kader Attou of Accrorap, the stage is a meeting point of different dance styles, and yet he boldly claims that what he is trying to create is not a "fusion".

Multiculturalism is in the veins of Accrorap.

French youth and urban cultures have absorbed and disseminated the American urban tradition of hip-hop largely through the Pockemon Crew, one of France's premier and award-winning dance ensembles.

Since 2006, the group has dominated the international hip-hop dance scene.
