El-P + Despot

Jaime Meline – aka El-P, El Producto or Lazerface – the founder of splendid alt.hip hop label Definitive Jux and one third of the peerless Company Flow makes a surprise return this year with his new album, 'Cancer for Cure'. It's been half a decade since this Brooklyn-dwelling rapper headlined his own London show, so this promises much. Expect darkly menacing, thrillingly textured beatscapes and sharp rhymes. Fellow New York rapper supports.
