Seattle Subsonic

Dig It!

November 11th, 2008

Digable Planets at Neumos tomorrow night, Nov 12th! Come out and give our boy Ish (Butterfly) a proper homecoming celebration. You may know these guys from their classic Grammy-winning hit ‘Rebirth of Slick (Cool Like That)’, which is just fine. It’s a dope track. But, this crew’s got plenty up there sleeves and are ready to bring their blend of fusion, hiphop, jazz and soul live and direct to your face. By no means are they a one trick pony. Ishmael “Butterfly” Butler (from Seattle), Craig “Doodlebug” Irving (from Philadelphia), and Mary Ann “Ladybug Mecca” Vieira (from Washington, DC) posess a style all their own and reunited back in 2005 to give you a dose of that good shit. They have a new album in the works and will hopefully be performing some new material alongside the classics.
.

Also, Ish deserves daps for his stellar verse on “Home” the last track on hometown hero Jake One’s White Van Music. One of the best Seattle-centric cuts I’ve ever had the pleasure to bump.

Rounding out the lineup we have:

GODSPEED, BIG WORLD BREAKS ONE FAMILY INC. HOUSE BAND & FRIENDS
DJ TOPSPIN A.K.A. BLENDIANA JONEZ
