It features musical performances by some of the top youth singers, rappers, and musicians from the New York City tri-state area. Hosted by MC JaidaBee and DJ Synchro, the Level Up Band provides live instrumentation for a cast of youth artists performing original and cover songs. The showcase concludes with an open jam session featuring all of the artists. Level Up Showcase also features veteran artist and associate director Ni-Emah Bugg and creator Fyütch, and hosts events at Funkadelic Studios on the second Saturday of each month.
