1999 called, it wants its concert back because this show is going to be THE BOMB.
In case you’ve never listened to rap music, Method Man and Redman have been making head-nodding, gangsta-leaning jams together since 1994 and are still two of the best rappers out there. If you don’t believe in soulmates, at least in a creative sense, these two could change your mind. B-Real is the front man of Cypress Hill and sold more than eighteen million albums. His nasally vocals are legendary, and while he has released countless hits, no one can resist or avoid “Insane in the Membrane.”
This trio has collaborated in the past, but the Smokers Club Tour is their first major tour as a headlining trio. Past headliners on the Smokers Club Tour include Ab-Soul, Joey Bada$$, Juicy J, and Big Krit. For hip-hop, influential figures don’t get much bigger than Redman, Method Man and B-Real, so this lineup is worth mentioning. It’s hard to determine what kind of crowd this show will draw because the headliners are so huge, but isn’t that reason enough to go? (Reilly Gill)
