    Never really heard any of their stuff.

    I see that The Underachievers are from same parts as Pro Era and the Zombies. Are they similar in style?

    Gonna check them out. All my mates are Dance heads and was at Life last year. So excited that they have acts for me this time!

    Underachievers and Flatbush Zombies have a group together called Indigo Clockwork.

    Ratking are the best group from New York at the moment.

    God damn it, between the Wu-Tang Clan and Nas I'm going to be even more broke than I am atm. To find a new place to live or buy tickets for both and live on the streets for awhile

    Have heard that from people but would still like to see them live, though ideally that would have been well over a decade ago.

    Jay Electronica is playing Whelans on March 12. Tickets are just over 20 euro which is a bargain

    I'd pay that to hear 'Exhibit C' played continuously for an hour.

    Any educated guesses as to what time Jay will be on stage on Thursday? Doors are 7.30, just don't fancy another Ghostface in the Sugar Club scenario, was waiting well over three hours for him to appear!

    Hello!

    Misha Freshin'... is a brand new monthly DJ/Beats/Hiphop night in The Bernard Shaw pub on South Richmond St., Dublin 2. Taking place on the last Friday of every month with no cover charge, Misha Freshin'... will showcase Ireland's best DJs and Producers from the thick and murky underground.

    Misha Freshin... #1 ft. SUNKEN FOAL + JIMMY THE HIDEOUS PENGUIN + MISHA REZIDENTS will be booming into action on Friday March 27th from 8pm.

    The plan is simple; great music, dope beats, eclectic mix and Friday-evening-good-vibes out the wazoo.
    Misha Freshin'... is run by a raggedy mob of music-crazed hoodlums.

    Facebook event page is up there too...

    wondering this myself working to 9.30ish & would be interested in the gig if he was due on around 10ish I'd head up as its on the way home anyway but if due on at 9 obviously no point

    Great show from Jay Electronica tonight! Have been to hip hop gigs in Vicar Street, Tripod, the Button Factory and the Sugar Club, but have to say Whelan's got it spot on, he sounded class on the mic, lots of a cappella stuff and really clear! Very impressed!

    The Academy is a decent size, the last few here were in the Twisted Pepper which where packed. Academy is much bigger but I'm sure it will be near a sellout.
    The new album has been well received and being reviewed by some of the larger media outlets, so there will be alot more interest.

    Yeah I heard awful things about it too, something to do with him preaching for 15 minutes. Sure at least at a festival if he's shít there'll be 10 other stages to go to haha

    Yeah, there was that, but the music just wasn't that good either. I only ever liked the first album and that sounds a bit bland and dated for me these days. I guess I've just gotten way more into hip-hop since it came out.
