Event
Eyedea And Abilities with Bleubird and Kristoff Krane
Minnesota emcee and dj duo Eyedea & Abilities pretty much defined underground hip-hop in the 90s to the present moment along with collaborators and contemporaries Atmosphere, Aesop Rock, El-P and the like. Incorporating distorted guitar and keyboard sounds with DJ Abilities' intricate turntable work, Eyedea spits rhymes from an extensive freestyle and battling history. Eyedea won the Blaze Battle aired on HBO against the fiercest underground battlers in the scene, and began touring with Slug of Atmosphere and other members of the Rhymesayers crew. DJ Abilities has won three DMC awards for his work on his mixtures and 1200 Hobos, and the two teamed up in 2001 to release First Born under their joined monikers. The follow up E&A emerged three years later, and in 2009 the duo released By the Throat, showcasing their musical growth into more experimental hip hop with a more punk mentality and more complex song structures. Rhymesayer Kristoff Krane and boundary-blowing SPACE favorite Bleubird open the evening.
