DIGABLE PLANETS (outside)

Wed, 19 Nov 2008 21:00:00 -0600

New York's Grammy Award-winning Digable Planets made a huge breakthrough back in the early '90s when they released their debut album, featuring heavy use of jazz samples infused with hip-hop. The album became an instant hit, with the first single "Rebirth of Slick (Cool Like Dat)" hitting the top of the charts. After a breakup in the mid-90s no one was sure if we would ever get to see this trio on the same stage again, but the Planets have reunited and there is even rumor that a new album will drop soon. Don't miss out on their performance at Emo's with newcomers Zeale & Phranchyze.

From Rolling Stone:

"Much of David Banner's charm lies in his bulldozer flow, his political awareness and his innovative production skills..."

From BlogCritics.org:

"David Banner raps about car doors, women, and the direction of his community on The Greatest Story Ever Told, an album that sparkles with moments of brilliance...David Banner’s fifth studio album is probably his most popular. It is stacked with guest appearances, including Chris Brown, Lil Wayne, Snoop Dogg, and Akon, and is structured quite well with a good amount of pop-rap radio hits..."

From RapReviews.com:

"...There comes a time in any artist's career when you simply have to step back and pay homage to greatness. With "II Trill" Bun B's ensured the legacy of U.G.K. will exist for decades to come, but more importantly he's created the album that every hip-hop head from North to South with have rattling out of their trunk all summer long...."

4-Star Review of Bun B's II Trill From Austin Chronicle:

"II Trill but never too trill, the second solo swagger from UGKer Bun B spins triumphant...II Trill boasts the work of a rapper aware of his responsibility atop the Houston rap game. Now that's trill"
