Consider this bill a celebration of Midwest hip-hop: Three masterful artists from three different cities with three very distinct visions. Black Milk, who will be performing with the Nat Turner Band, is a Detroit veteran who’s collaborated with neighbors like Jack White, Slum Village and Danny Brown, but he saves his best for his own albums, which are soulful, political and unapologetically exploratory, often drawing inspiration from electronic music. Milwaukeean Zed Kenzo’s take on hip-hop is weirder and wilder, a witchy hip-hop/trap hybrid with a pitch-black sense of humor. Minneapolis’ magnificent CRASHprez, meanwhile, channels political rage into bombastic, flame-throwing, fascist-punching poetry. Milwaukee’s Dope Folk DJs will spin between sets at this show.
