Brother Ali: “We’re very excited and grateful to be headed out on our Home Away From Home Tour with Bambu, MaLLy and Last Word. Anyone who’s experienced my headlining tours knows that I like to have one DJ and one host for the entire evening and I choose my support artists very carefully. If you’re not up on any of our tour family’s music, please check them out so you’ll know how to appreciate them when we’re in your town. I also like to make a tour theme song with everyone in the crew to celebrate rolling out together. Please enjoy this track and we welcome your well wishes for safe travels and security for our loved one’s while we’re away. Love Always and See You Soon!” -Ali”

From Sway’s Universe: In the first clip, Brother Ali and Prof stopped by Sway in the Morning’s station at the 2014 Soundset Festival. First, Sway decided to cross check the rappers’ knowledge of their home town of Minnesota. Then Ali spoke about cultural appropriation and accepting that as a white person that he is a guest within hip-hop. Prof spoke about his recent joining of Rhymesayers Entertainment and why that was the best move for his career. Additionally, Ali announced that he will be temporarily relocating to Oakland to get his liberal arts degree this summer.

In the second clip, rapper P.O.S. spoke about his kidney transplant and why he did not write music during that time. Also, Slug talked about the history of the Soundset Festival and how it differs from other music festivals.

Finally, in the third clip, Slug, P.O.S., Muja Messiah, Lioness, Metasota, Carnage, Joe Horton, and Mally all came together to deliver one of the sickest Sway in the Morning Cyphers. Round after round each emcee showed why Soundset is the festival to be at.

Brother Ali tells us:

“As we embark on the War And Peace Tour with my brother, Immortal Technique, I’m excited to release a new musical project. “Left In The Deck” is a collection of 10 raw, grimy recordings made in basements and hotel rooms around the world. This demo-tape style release was produced entirely by Jake One. It hasn’t been polished up for the market or cleaned for the radio. These songs were left in their original demo form and are intended only for my family of direct supporters. The beats are grimy and I feel like this is some of the best rhyming I’ve ever captured on tape. I want to release this directly to you.

- Brother Ali”

R.A. The Rugged Man’s acclaimed new album Legends Never Die finds the legendary rapper linking up with a number of high-profile peers, including Tech N9ne, Talib Kweli, Hopsin, Vinnie Paz, and Krizz Kaliko. One of the most talked-about collaborations on the album is “The Dangerous Three,” featuring both Brother Ali and Masta Ace. Now, R.A. is unveiling the highly-anticipated music video for the historic posse cut. Check out the full video featuring all three hip hop legends now.

Brother Ali weighs in on the recent closing of the Zimmerman trial, and the death of Trayvon Martin. He writes:

“I made this video in conversation with people who follow me on social media about Racism in our society. People are going to have all kinds of reactions in the comments including hate. If you decide to engage them with comments of your own, let’s be conscious about only adding to conversation in constructive ways that heal. Challenging one another’s ideas is good, reducing people to non-persons by name calling isn’t.”

In part 2 of Hard Knock TV’s interview with Brother Ali, he says that the Trayvon Martin/George Zimmerman case is a great opportunity to explore legacy of racism. He speaks on white guilt, reverse racism, race baiting and more.

Exclusive in-depth interview from Hard Knock TV with Brother Ali. In part 1 he talks about Trayvon Martin, George Zimmerman and how people are trying to work around the fact that the case demonstrates institutional racism in America and that a lot of people would rather ignore it. Brother Ali says that we are speaking in codes and that in order to truly address what is going on when need to unpack those codes.

For the third track from Soul Tools Entertainment’s Soul ToolsDay series Reggie Reg provides a spacey backdrop for Rhymesayers Entertainment emcee Brother Ali to rock on. “Don’t Mess With Me” is hypnotizing display from both Reggie Reg with the production and Brother Ali with the rhymes, definitely one of those tracks fans will have on repeat just to take it all in.

R.A. The Rugged Man takes fans inside a recent studio session alongside producer Mr. Green, working on the new collaboration “The Dangerous Three” featuring Brother Ali and Masta Ace. “The Dangerous Three” will be featured on R.A.’s new album “Legends Never Die,” in stores April 30th 2013.
