Music Menu / News Queen City welcomes Slick Rick (02/25/10)

Posted By on Thu, Feb 25, 2010 at 11:32 AM

Slick Rick London-born Rick The Ruler, pardoned by New York governor David Paterson almost two years ago for the attempted murder of his cousin way back in 1990 (he served five years total) and hassled by Homeland Security goons ever since (just because a guy says he's "the bomb" doesn't mean he's carrying one, fellers), is finally back doing what he does best – spinning half-speed, half-spoken rhymes owing equally to flair and flow. A huge influence on the Kanyes of the world, both in dress and delivery, Rick's unfortunately been fighting our country's labyrinthine immigration laws more often over the last decade than seen in what he'll tell you is his true home, the studio. Catch him while you can. With Doug E Fresh. Amos' Southend
