Event Description

Get ready to welcome Chilean hip-hop sensation Anita Tijoux as she makes performs songs off her new album, 1977, at Martyrs’ this Saturday. She’ll be joined by fellow rhymers All Natural, Olmeca and Phillip Morris.

The French-born MC briefly crossed over to the mainstream a couple of years ago with her collaboration on Julieta Venegas’ smash hit “Eres para mí.” However, Tijoux’s career goes back way over a decade, and includes plenty of other guest appearances with a variety of well-known artists including Control Machete, Bajofondo’s Supervielle, and Latin Bitman. 1977 is an autobiographical conceptual piece that revisits her roots as a raw hip-hop lyricist.

All Natural is a Chicago two-man hip-hop duo formed by DJ Tone B. Nimble and MC capital D. Olmeca, ranked as one of the most talented bilingual emcees, is often compared to Zack de la Rocha and Talib Kweli. Phillip Morris mixes his unique voice with coherent freestyles and complex rhyme schemes.
