On occasion, butt-nasty venue Tom Cat’s lands shows so fitting for its out-of-the-way underground status that I’m simultaneously baffled and impressed. Wednesday’s hip-hop showcase is a perfect example, touting under-the-radar MCs like MED, Count Bass D and, most important, Percee P, a 35-year-old veteran who still hasn’t released a debut album. Repeating for emphasis–no album after 20 years of rapping…until Perseverance hits on June 20, anyway. Until then, hear the man best-known for guesting on choice cuts by J5 and Edan before his mind-blowing rap flow and dastardly tongue finally earn the attention they deserve (and venues better than Tom Cat’s).
