Last year proved to be a prolific one for Del The Funky Homosapien, with a solo album, Eleventh Hour, and a compilation titled Over Time with his Hieroglyphics crew. The collective—which also counts grimy battle-rapper Casual and the sunny, spiritual Pep Love among its core constituents—hasn’t been that active as a whole since 2003’s proper studio disc, Full Circle, but this tour should cement some of the group’s momentum. Opener Blue Scholars’ concerns run broad, and MC Geologic’s rhymes help to revive their urgency, even for people who think they’ve heard enough socially conscious rap lately. The Seattle duo’s second full-length, Bayani, suggests that protest hip-hop might sound best set to the thoughtful tempos of A Tribe Called Quest. Also playing: Knobody, Musab, Tanya Morgan.
