Advanced tickets only http://NIGHTBAT.com SPECTRUM, TIGERSTONE PRESENTS... Del The Funky Homosapien Thursday, April 8 at Fortune Sound Club (147 E. Pender at Main in Chinatown) Cousin of renowned gangster rapper Ice Cube, Del tha Funkee Homosapien (http://delthefunkyhomosapien.com) touches down on the Function-One sound system. Del's debut release, I Wish My Brother George Was Here, was issued in 1991 and produced by Cube and like most rap at the time, featured numerous samples of Parliament Funkadelic classics from the '70s. Having left Elektra, Del aligned himself closely to a few fellow rapper friends, Casual and Souls of Mischief, and issued his third release overall, 1998's Future Development, for the same label as his friends, Hieroglyphics Records. 2000 saw the release of an all-new Del solo release, Both Sides of the Brain, as well as a self-titled debut release by a side project, Deltron 3030, which saw Del join forces with both the Automator and Kid Koala. It took eight years for the rapper's next solo full-length to come out, but in the interim Del kept himself busy with guest appearances, including on the Damon Albarn project Gorillaz's self-titled debut, adding his recognizable vocals to the hit "Clint Eastwood," a song that he also began incorporating in his live sets. In 2007 it was announced that the MC had been signed to Def Jux, who released the long-awaited (and very un-Def Jux-like) Eleventh Hour in March of 2008. A year later he teamed with Artifacts member Tame One for the collaboration album Parallel Uni-Verses. Greg Prato, All Music Guide.

HIP-HOP KARAOKE VOLUME 5 W/DJ SEKO & HOSTED BY DJ FLIPOUT Monday, April 12 at Fortune Sound Club (147 E. Pender at Main in Chinatown) doors 9pm, free before 10:30pm Started in New York City in 2004, Hip Hop Karaoke (HHK) offers the chance for people to pay homage to their favourite artists and properly represent their tracks in a 'karaoke' style format. While initially an underground event, HHK has blown up around the world growing a huge rep. HHK embraces the raw 'show n prove' nature of emceeing, allowing people to kick their favourite jams over proper instrumentals (no thin-ass re-worked typical karaoke beats) on stage with a real sound system and DJ. While HHK has spread around the world gaining an international, cult-like following, December 7th will mark its official arrival in the Pacific North-West. Hosted at Fortune Sound Club, HHK Vancouver is going to jump onto the scene HARD giving Vancouver its first chance to step to the mic. Run on a monthly basis and backed by the biggest sound system in the city, this is set to be the launch of something HUGE that you dont want to miss. The format of HHK is straightforward, and designed to create a positive environment for guests and performers alike. Starting at 10 pm, we will be running 'sets' of 4-5 people every 15-20 minutes with the DJ spinning in between to keep things fired up. We want this to be an inclusive and un-intimidating event, that embraces more than the usual backpacker/hyper-gangsterized open mic type cats. We hope to get lots of these proper emcees out, but more importantly draw all the closet emcees out to share that track they kill in the shower every morning. So rally your crew, get your shit together and come to a unique and super bumpin party. You MUST pre-register (limited space) at hhkvancouver@gmail.com. Doors 9pm, free before 10:30pm LIVE NATION, GMANandRIZK.com, SPECTRUM PRESENT… PUBLIC ENEMY W/JUICEBOXXX Thursday, May 27 at Commodore Ballroom (868 Granville St) doors 9pm, show 10pm After more than 20 years, Public Enemy (www.publicenemy.com) show no signs of slowing down. Their messages are as urgent and compelling as ever, their performances just as electrifying. A group whose musical style and incendiary delivery have earned them critical acclaim and millions of fans throughout their career, Public Enemy continues to blaze musical and technological trails with new songs and new media, pulling rap music into the future, all while keeping its musical roots firmly intact. The group burst onto both the rap and pop music world in 1987 with their first single, "Public Enemy #1," a startling combination of Chuck D's commanding orations and Flava Flav's show-stopping antics to keep the message entertaining. The song is not only known for introducing a whole new sound to the rap genre, but for giving the group their name. A month later, Public Enemy released their debut album, Yo! Bum Rush the Show.
