We’re happy to announce that Kno, Natti, and Deacon the Villain that comprise the southern state hip hop trio CunninLynguists are once again returning to Europe! The trio will visit Europe in November for the second part of the Strange Universe European Tour, which began in 2014.
CunninLynguists have one of the most consistent catalogues of any current hip hop act, and they have built one of the most loyal worldwide fan bases in all of indie rap, without the help of a bigger record label. They have been going strong for fifteen years and with their southern boom-bap, strong lyrics and energetic live shows they are at the top of their game and more relevant than ever. By sampling everything from psych-rock to blues and New Romantic to polka, they have been musically compared to UGK and Atmosphere in the same breath. They have toured and shared stages with Kanye West, Aesop Rock, Nappy Roots, Cee-Lo Green (Goodie Mob), People Under The Stairs, Raekwon and Brand Nubian and produced for Lil’ Scrappy as well as KRS-One.
This time they are accompanied by American rapper Sheisty Khrist as support, who has collaborated with the members of CunninLynguists on previous tracks before.
Both Deacon and Kno have current solo projects – Kno recently released the album ‘Phantom Limbs’, together with Sadistik, and Deacon is releasing his first solo album ‘Peace Or Power’ on September 30th. Exciting stuff is in the works, and as they are now heading over to Europe with a bunch of club gigs lined up, there couldn’t be a better time to see them perform!
