Hear This: Yo Gotti @ Venue

Most musicians don't become famous over night (unless, of course, they're Fetty Wap). And while this slow trajectory to fame might suck for the artists, it's a coo for their fans because they have more time to see said artists perform live in intimate, smaller settings before they blow up. This is the case with Memphis rapper, Yo Gotti, who's been in the game since '96, but still plays at cozier locales, as is the case with his upcoming show at Venue Oakland. Fans might know him for his 2013 hit, "Act Right," but this gravelly voiced MC has a lot more to offer than just one hit. With six studio albums under his belt (and a new mixtape that dropped last Friday), Yo Gotti has a lot going on. The only downside to his upcoming show is that Snootie Wild, who's signed to Yo Gotti's record label, Cocaine Music Group, won't be there, too. #Bummer.

  • clipping at Brava Theater Sept. 11
    Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
