Hip hop is a weird animal. The genre has been declared dead more times than Rock 'n Roll, yet still plugs along. Rather than think of it as a dying tree though, it's better to think of it as one that keeps blossoming, with branches growing and pointing in all different directions. The acts that stand the test of time are the ones who never limit themselves to one branch.

Hippie dippy analogies aside, it's simply a fun sandbox to play in. Few are more playful than Denver's Two Fresh, who are bringing their frenetic yet driving performance to Duke's tonight. Joined by Buffalo's own Quinton Brock, as well as supporting sets from Mario Bee and buffaBLOG Holiday Party show stealer  Dr. Ooo, there is nary a weak link on the bill. Doors are at 9 and tickets are a paltry $10. Come in from the cold.
