Urban golf goes Hip-Hop. All roads lead to the Urban Country Club in San Francisco today [Saturday] where "the RZA and DJ Evil E will keep it live all day while and local graffiti artists will paint the walls while pimped-out golf carts, Big Nate's BBQ and refreshing cocktails round out the show." It doesn't come much better than that. The sport usually associated with country clubs takes to the streets of San Francisco at an outdoor hip-hop show benefiting the New Orleans Boys & Girls Club on Saturday. The RZA of Wu Tang fame emcees the event, which features a nine-hole putt-putt course, pimped out golf carts and graffiti artists galore.

The Urban Country Club was created by multimedia event producers Mack Daddy Caddy in response to the inaccessibility and exclusivity of the sport. Hip-hop and urban culture breathe new life into the otherwise straight-laced sport, creating a "fresh and funktified" image, says Luke Kohl, co-founder of Mack Daddy Caddy. The Urban Country Club is divided into a morning and afternoon session. Tee off at 11 a.m. with Kevvy Kev, Stanford's host of "The Drum," the longest running hip-hop radio show in the nation, as he hosts an hour-long forum with champion golfer Walter Morgan. The RZA and DJ Evil E join Morgan on the panel and discuss staying at the top of your game, be it music or golf. The country club reopens at 2 p.m. with a concert by The RZA, Evil E, Rasco, Jennifer Johns, Sake 1 and includes break dancing and a 3,600-square-foot putt-putt course. Props to Jeremy at Shoreditch Golf Club for the tip-off.
