Brand Nubian are without a doubt one of the most influential groups in Hip-Hop. With club classics like "Punks Jump Up" & "Slow Down" sure to feature alongside solo classics from Sadat X and Grand Puba as the original three members perform together in the UK for the first time in years.

When Brand Nubian stepped onto the scene at the dawn of the 1990s, it seemed as if funky, mindful, barrier-breaking hip-hop albums were coming out every day. De La Soul and A Tribe Called Quest were at the height of their powers, and nearly forgotten groups such as KMD and the Goats were dropping gems. A hip-hop group from New Rochelle, New York, Brand Nubian – aka MCs Grand Puba, Sadat X and Lord Jamar – attained legendary status on the underground off the back of their celebrated debut album, “One For All” . Easy flow and laid-back rhythms serving as the platform for the declaration of their Islamic faith and the teachings of The 5% Nation. In recent years, the group have been better known for their respective solo joints than new material, but live they still bring it with poignant sentiments and politically charged rhymes.
