Dead Prez

Description:
Crank up your speakers, your woofers and your tweeters, coz Dead Prez are touring Australia for the first time ever. For those who don’t know, these particularly articulate, Brooklyn-via-Florida bad boys have been crafting challenging, left wing, border-line revolutionary hip hop since the late 90s, and they are the definition of rad. Forget hot cars and ladies with generous bottoms – these fellas rail against the iniquities of American society, but in a way that still makes you want to party. – AF
