Prof is heading back into the winter abyss for a short headlining tour that will hit a hodgepodge of small Midwest towns. The recently signed Rhymesayers rapper has long been known for a tireless work ethic to go along with his offensive sense of humor.
Here's the official disclaimer from the Rhymesayers Entertainment website: It's been far too long since PROF has visited many of these cities so these shows are going to get wild (make sure to grab your diapers and pre-pay your rehab)!
LA Weekly called Prof one of their '5 Rappers to Watch' entering 2014, and then stood by its selection this month by giving him an 'A' grade in their annual review.
"He's had one of the most celebrated live shows in underground hip-hop for a good three years now, and spent 2014 completing two national tours, one headlining and one opening for Atmosphere," LA Weekly wrote. "While he didn't release much new music, his single 'Farout' was one of our fall favorites."
Prof spent much of the fall on the North of Hell Tour with Atmosphere and Dem Atlas, and now he's hitting up many of the same areas (but not venues) in the Midwest.
Here are the official dates:
01/29: Eau Claire, WI @ House of Rock
01/30: La Crosse, WI @ Cavalier Theatre
01/31: Madison, WI @ High Noon Saloon
02/05: Des Moines, IA @ Vaudeville Mews
02/06: Rochester, MN @ The Wicked Moose
02/07: Iowa City, IA @ Gabe's Oasis
02/13: Duluth, MN @ Grandma's
02/14: Sioux Falls, SD @ Icon
The dude has been rolling since 2008, when he unveiled his initial Stophouse project with St. Paul Slim. Now, he's basically Twin Cities royalty. Check out his (pretty funny) introduction video from the day of his Rhymesayers signing.
