Funk and a sweet, sticky spliff have been the perfect pair ever since James Brown and Bootsy Collins hotboxed a studio in '70. A couple of decades later, there were Dre, Snoop, and The Chronic. And this Friday, the marriage of music and marijuana will go next-level with the Smoker's Club Tour at White Room.
Sponsored by international bud bible High Times as well as Cinematic Music Group and Jets International, this touring festival of beats and bud features three spitting fans of superior consciousness and skinny cigarettes: Big K.R.I.T., Smoke DZA, and Curren$y.
Straight out of Mississippi, K.R.I.T. is the 24-year-old rookie king of keeping it realer than real. Bold and basic, the big man is not afraid of calling out the rap industry's shallowness and stupidity on tracks such as "Children of the World" before balling hard on "Country Shit." Meanwhile, Harlem's Smoke DZA and New Orleans's Curren$y also flip off gangsta fantasies, steering instead toward hard fact, street truth, and untainted kush.
