HAIKU DE KODENAME is Freestyle Fellowship (old school L.A. hip-hop) alumni Abstract Rude and Myka 9 with Swollen Members' Moka Only. They're performing a special intimate show at The Miniplex following a screening of Ava Duvernay's pioneering hip-doc THIS IS THE LIFE at 7:00, which Abstract Rude and Myka 9 star in. These tickets are for the LIVE MUSIC only portion of the night. For tickets to the movie 'This is the Life' plus the live performance click here instead.
"Nurtured by Los Angeles’ near-mythical underground scene centered around the Good Life Café and Project Blowed, Abstract Rude boasts an indelible, intoxicating voice. He raps and sings with equal verve, and his deep baritone resonates with rhythmic power." - SPIN
"For me Mikah 9 was like Miles Davis.... He was a genius in what he did. He affected and influenced so many people in hip-hop including Mos Def, Talib Kweli, that whole scene." - Pigeon John
"The only cat out there putting in more work than Madlib in the hip-hop game is Canadian rapper-producer Moka Only... one of hip-hop’s most creative and inspiring minds." - PopMatters
Joining Haiku de Kodename for the show are special guests B.Squid, DJ Bennishoes, Mumu Crew & host Dr.Oop!
