J-Live! PUTS! At Canes
9pm, $15
Oooh wee, what a show! The opening act was a crew called Giant Panda that was suprisingly good. Nice beats and good enunciation. People Under The Stairs came on after and man if you ever get a chance to catch a PUTS show don't miss it. They put on a tight show. All three members are real professional entertainers. They've got mini-comedy routines, great beats, head-nodders and party rockers.
Last but not least was J-Live and he definitely earned the right to have the word 'live' is in his name. He is a dope MC, especially given that PUTS is a hard act to follow. J-Live's show was a bit rushed but there is hardly anything else more sublime in hip-hop than seeing Braggin' Writes performed live, where J gets behind the ones & twos and scratches while MCing at the same time.
