Communist anti-capitalism hip-hop at it's finest.
This show is the most fun you can have at a Hip-Hop show. They've been using a live band since '93. Hopefully it is a full band instead of a three piece, but the drummer they've used for the last few years is this FILTHY. He's gotta be about 21 now, but he's been playing with them and Destiny's Child since he was 17.
The flyers for the event promoted that Pam the Funkstress was in the show, which will be a treat. Haven't seen her since Pick a Bigger Weapon came out.
