Legendary hip-hop duo Method
Man & Redman have just announced a one off show in New Zealand as part of
their Blackout Tour. The two prolific rappers, who have
also carved out massively successful solo careers, released their first
collaborative album Blackout! in 1999 which earned the duo a cult following, ten years later, following it up
with Blackout! 2.
Method Man has been a hip-hop star since his eponymous cut from Enter the Wu-Tang first put Wu-Tang
Clan on the map in 1993, and he solidified the position with
some of the best of the solo work to come out of the group, including Tical, Tical 2000: Judgement Day, Tical
0: The Prequel, 4.21 The Day After and The Meth Lab. His
reach has long extended beyond music, with a successful acting career that
included prominent roles in The
Wire, Oz and Belly.
He also starred in the cult-classic comedy How High with Redman.
Redman’s seminal
debut, Whut? Thee
Album, hit stores in 1992, and it sounded like nothing hip-hop
fans had ever heard before. The album’s sound was rooted in the funk of Redman’s fellow Def Squad member Erick Sermon’s production, but Redman’s brash energy, punchlines and persona were wholly
original. In the nearly two decades since, Redman has evolved into a hip-hop
institution. He’s appeared on countless albums as a guest rapper, has released
a further seven solo albums, a Def
Squad collaborative album with Sermon and Keith Murray, and
of course, released his albums with Method
Man.
Don’t miss Method
Man and Redman live
at Auckland’s TOWN HALL on September 6th. Joining the line up
is New Zealand’s own DJ Sir-Vere & TEAM DYNAMITE.
