REVIEW | RAS KASS LIVE IN LONDON ALONG WITH THE LEGENDARY DJ 279

By • On Reviews

Élite lyr­i­cist Ras Kass also known as the “Water­proof Emcee” took to the stage in front of a very load O2 Isling­ton Academy. The reac­tion Ras Kass received goes to show that even a vet­er­an emcee who rarely gets any com­mer­cial radio play, has seen a music­al resur­gence amongst this new Spo­ti­fy / Tik­Tok gen­er­a­tion who are drawn to qual­ity and respect superb lyr­i­cism when they hear it.

We were treat to cuts from his clas­sic albums “Soul On Ice” “Rass­as­sin­a­tion” “Blas­phemy” and more…

The issue with artists that have a sol­id near 30 year dis­co­graphy is there are only so many tracks they can cram into a 25minute set, so we were def­in­itely left want­ing more.
Under­stand­ably this wasn’t the full Ras Kass show as he was open­ing up for The Phar­cyde tonight, there­fore next time round we would cer­tainly expect more from this Hip Hop hero.

7 out 10 (Ras admit­ting him and DJ 279 put their set togeth­er on the fly. Which showed through a couple awk­ward moments)

SKAN…
