Since their inception during hip-hop's seminal turn-of-the-'90s era, Brand Nubian have broken up more than once, suffered serious censorship, and somehow still released a Billboard-worthy album every few years. Tonight, original members Sadat X, Grand Puba, and Lord Jamar kick 5% philosophies with signature funk and frankness. Meanwhile, Harlem's gifted producer 88 Keys debuts his rhyming skills, Brooklyn's aggressively slick MC Fresh Daily flashes Nike Dunks, and Negroclash first lady DJ Lindsey steps to the mic. Between warped spinner Thanksgiving Brown destroying the decks and hip-hop ninja John Robinson playing host, you might even forget that tomorrow is Tuesday.
