http://congresschicago.frontgatetickets.com Snoop Dogg, Method Man, Redman, and Devin The Dude at Congress Theater
Along with a few select characters (Dr. Dre, Suge Knight), Snoop Dogg revolutionized the sound, style, and business of hip-hop, for better (Doggystyle) and worse (Father Hood). His smooth vowel deconstruction shook up American vocabulary (see: “for shizzle,” or preferably don't) and he continues to wander into new musical territory while making everything look and sound effortless. He has a few potential stage-stealers to contend with here: Method Man And Redman (a sort of vaudevillian hip-hop enterprise that will never get old) and Devin The Dude, a lovably twisted figurehead in his own right.
