Rakim adds Cork and Galway dates

New York rap legend Rakim has added Cork and Galway dates to his already fast-seeling out show at the Button Factory on May 6.

The old skool rapper will perform from his vast catalogue of material that includes the classic Paid in Full album (recently voted the greatest hip-hop album of all time by MTV) and his more recent The Seventh Seal release. Rakim brings his lyrical craftmanship to The Pavillion, Cork on May 3 and Roisin Dubh, Galway on May 4. Tickets for Cork are priced at €18, for Galway €22 and Dublin €22.50.

Between this, Raekwon's upcoming show and Grandmaster Flash's recent DJ set, it's a great time to be an Irish hip-hop fan!
