Beats, Rhymes & Life: The Story Of A Tribe Called Quest (UK Premiere)

Soundcrash & The Doctor's Orders are set to present the UK premiere of Michael Rapaport's award winning film documentary, Beats, Rhymes & Life: The Story Of A Tribe Called Quest, which documents the highs and lows of Hip-Hop's Golden Era's most celebrated group. Featuring an original soundtrack by Madlib and including humourous and insightful interviews with the likes of ?uestlove, De La, Ghostface, ATCQ themselves and many more, the story of A Tribe has never been better told. The screening will be followed by a live show by the one and only Phife Dawg. After being priveliged enough to see an exclusive viewing of this before its release in America, I can safely say that this is something that no Hip-Hop fan will want to miss. I cried.

When: Monday 21st November 2011 (Screening: 8pm - Live Show: 9.30pm)
Where: Koko, 1a, Camden High Street, NW1 7JE
Tickets: £15.50 (screening & show)
