Brother Ali (March 29 at Nietzsche's)
An unusual face in the world of hip-hop, mid-western Muslim rapper Brother Ali brings “The Truth Is Here” tour to Nietzsche’s on Saturday (March 29). The tour is in support of his album The Undisputed Truth, chock full of passionate lyrics and angry political rhymes set to soulful beats. Born in Wisconsin, Ali comes this way from his hometown in Minneapolis. He is legally blind, like many with albinism, and his unique experiences with the challenges of fitting in are reflected in his lyrical play in equal measure with his politics. Presented by DeepThinka Records and Center Stage Concerts, the show also features Abstract Rude, Toki Wright and BK-One, plus hometown favorite Edreys. The concert starts at 9pm
