Aesop Rock-ing in RiRa

New York's uber- cool hip hop label Def Jux (home to Cannibal Ox & Mr. Lif, owned by El- P) are back to Ireland, this time bringing one of the hottest and most hyped talents of the underground hip hop scene, Aesop Rock.
This is Aesop's first time playing here and he has brought some very strong support with him, in the form of MC C Rayz Walyz, DJ Whiz and The Gudmen.
Aesop's Labor Days LP was hailed as a modern classic of the genre, and his new one Bazooka Tooth confirms him as one of the maestros of his game.
The last Def Jux night in Dublin (with El- P, Mr. Lif & RJD2) was really spectacular, so this is bound to be a genuine 'must see' gig, for all hip hop fans.

Feb 19. Doors 11.30pm. Tickets on sale at 12 euro from Road Records, Urban, Sound Cellar, Comet, Freebird, City Discs, All City Records on Ri Ra on the night.
