With dozens of roles over the past two decades (American Gangster, John Wick 2), Common is as much of a movie star as he is a rapper. The Chicago-bred MC secured his legacy as a pillar of hip-hop with classic LPs like Resurrection, Be, One Day It’ll All Make Sense and Like Water for Chocolate—few performers have balanced both worlds with such aplomb. He’s joined by Rapsody, the Grammy-nominated MC from North Carolina who’s widely acknowledged as one of the rap game’s preeminent wordsmiths. Signed to Jay-Z’s Roc Nation, her latest LP is 2019’s Eve. The show will be opened by Pete Rock, one half of the critically acclaimed group Pete Rock & CL Smooth, who helped pioneer the fusion of jazz, funk, and soul with rap, and is responsible for some of the most iconic productions in New York hip-hop.
