Two
of hip-hop's most intelligent wordsmiths and rhyme-merchants are brought
together for a unique double bill by those generous people at the Voodoo Rooms.

J-Live's
dextrous vocal flows balance vivid imagery and humorous narratives with biting
social commentary and a bass-heavy, timeless hip-hop sound. As the name of his
Triple Threat production company implies, this one-time English teacher in Brooklyn,
New York, takes on the task of verses,
beats and scratches himself on his latest album: Then What Happened?

Canadian
rapper and producer, Rollie "Cadence Weapon" Pemberton, cracks wicked
lines about heartbreak, parties and try-hard hipsters over an unpredictable
techno collage of hard-core beats and breaks. Defying everything you've ever
heard about Canada
- or its hip-hop scene - on his latest LP, Afterparty Babies, Mr Weapon has
raised the bar on modern rap.

Tickets priced £12 stbf are available now from The
