Now 5 years young and weekly, Hip-Hop Karaoke is a cracking piss-up with slightly less dazzling karaoke at The Social, and one of the friendliest, liveliest crowds in London. We've attended this event a few times and have always been impressed by how awful most of the talent is, and how friendly a reception they get anyway. Rapping, is difficult.
A couple of bad boys turn up most nights and steal the show by actually being able to rhyme and flow. Your best bet as a casual punter is to drink heavily, and choose a popular classic with easy words where the crowd can help you through - Push It, is an over popular choice.
