APRIL 6-28: THE PHARCYDE’S TRE HARDSON ON THE ROAD
Mar 8, 2006 6:01 PM
With his "Roots Love and Culture" single featuring MC Lyte still a heavy-hitter on the underground hip-hop scene, The Pharcyde’s Tre Hardson has announced an April 4th release for his highly anticipated new album, SlimKid3's Café.
Departing slightly from his Pharcyde roots, Tre has put together a new band, Fuqawi, and a sexy, soulful sound based in live instrumentation rather than DATs and turntables. Hardson's new record, SlimKid3's Café, offers a much needed alternative to the current hip-hop "bling" trend and further solidifies him as one of the great musical innovators of this generation.
In support of SlimKid3's Café, Tre will be embarking on a national tour, Rap Renegades Tour, with his 5-piece band Fuqawi and another alternative hip-hop artist, Speech of Arrested Development (www.speechmusic.com). Also on the bill are Modill (www.modill.com) and Longshot (www.evproductions.net), who will spin to get the party started.
