Plastic Little Gettin’ LIVE at KFN Sept. 22

Yo, listen up! Tonight Plastic Little’s goin’ to bum rush the stage at Kung Fu Necktie causing damage to your brain with their thunderous lyrical blows! Since the start of the new millennium, Plastic Little have been spittin’ hard the word of the street over London’s classic 2-step funk beats and electronic dub remixes (“Cheap Thrills” also samples the first two notes from the chorus of “Thriller”.) Their 2004 EP, released on A-Ron’s budding label aNYthing Records is comprised of the first six songs off their debut “Thug Paradise 2.1”, which gained 10 out of 10 stars from Vice and a nod from Pitchfork. They’ve since skyrocketed to ultimate street-cred status and have collaborated with OGs such as Ghostface Killah on “Crambodia”, a theme song if any for the band, on which MC Jon Thousand exclaims: “I’m bout to celebrate/ It’s Saturday and I’m not dead.” You realize that his beating heart is, in fact, an achievement, considering his purported possession of the “best blow” while he’s “poppin PCPs” and “holding [his] dick in quicksand” (bet that itches days later). Party on. Kung Fu Necktie, 1250 N. Front St., 8pm, FREE, 21+ (M. Scott Whitson) – Katie Bennett
