Decent hip-hop is an increasingly rare occurrence at The Tuesday Club these days, so it’s sick to see that tomorrow, UK underground legend Rodney P and the equally revered DJ Skitz are gracing us with their hallowed presence. The pair most notably worked together on Skitz’s 2001 debut album Countryman, an indisputable masterpiece which displays the respectable face of British hip-hop and helps us all to forget the rise and rise of Chipmunk and the need for Wikipedia to have an article entitled ‘Electrogrime’. If you’ve not had a chance to hear it, I’ve uploaded ‘Dedication’, so have a goosey and get fucking loose.

Liquid d&b duo Brookes Brothers and beatboxer Reeps One finish off the line-up and it’s only £5.50 to get your arse through the door. Surely there’s no reason for you not to come!?

Head over to Facebook for more info on how to get tickets.

January 19th sees the return of The Tuesday Club for 2010 and as a welcome to the next decade of our awesome/miserable/pointless/adventurous/amazing lives, tickets are now on offer at two-for-one. The critically acclaimed seven-piece Homecut head up the bill with a live set showcasing their unique brand of fusion hip-hop and, after playing a sick show at Cuba Libre last year, the Renegade Brass Band are back to tear it up like it’s the god dam future (which it is). Stoaty, Andy H and Mikey J aka the resident TTC DJs, are also lined up to contribute to the festivities and drop some tunes sure to get you bouncing around the dancefloor like a football covered in flubber. Which, if you’re Robin Williams, is always a good thing.

Tickets are £4 advance, but obviously only £2 if you’re getting two. Doors at 11, and if you don’t know where it is, it’s at Sheffield University’s Fusion & Foundry. More info on Facebook.
