Ahead of the Class CO Tour
Play Cousin (Boonie Mayfield & Jordan Craft) added to the Ahead of the Class tour dates in Colorado Springs & Denver…
We’re excited to announce that Play Cousin, the newly formed duo consisting of internationally acclaimed producer/MC Boonie Mayfield and rhyme-slinger Jordan Craft, will be opening for both the Colorado Springs (March 10th at the Black Sheep) and Denver (March 12th at the Marquis) dates of the Ahead of the Class tour. It marks the duo’s first performance together as Play Cousin and makes for a nice bonus on the already stacked Ahead of the Class bills. Check out the video above for an introduction to Play Cousin and check below to see Boonie makes a beat live (in his infamous youtube video that has over 885,000 views).
What’s up with the Solution you ask? Well here’s a quick update…
As you hopefully already know, the Solution has parted ways with 3014 (after a series of bounced checks while the “owner” was in Mexico…SMH…We got our cash and bounced). We moved the party to Shag last week and filled up the spot for #FuckFOEFriday (check out the pics on our facebook page), but the move to Shag was a one off relocation for our party with King F.O.E. and PopularLemonade.com and we’re still trying to decide where the Solution will make our new weekly home.
With that said, we’re going to take the next two Fridays (2/25 & 3/4) off to focus on the move and prepare for the Ahead of the Class Tour, which happens to feature the first Solution related events outside of Denver (we see you Boulder, Breckenridge & Colorado Springs). So anyways, please bear with us for the next two weeks, make sure you put Friday, 3/11 in your calendar for the Solution’s 5th Annual J Dilla Tribute and come check us out at the Marquis Theatre on Saturday, 3/12 for the Ahead of the Class Tour w/Tanya Morgan, TiRon, Whygee, King F.O.E., DJ Low Key, Lazy Eyez and specials guests TBA.

“Quietly and stealthily, they’ve evolved into one of the finest groups of their generation” – The L.A. Times on Tanya Morgan
“TiRon isn’t your average rapper, he’s something more” – XXL Magazine on TiRon
“With all due respect to Talib and Hi-Tek, I’m actually more inclined to revisit team Tanya’s likeably loose, bordering-on-sloppy inaugural effort than said ballyhooed backpack-crowd classic.” – Chairman Mao of XXL Chairman’s Choice & Ego Trip
“Los Angeles’ Best Rapper” – The L.A. Times on TiRon
“Tanya Morgan are like the sons of De La Soul– soulful, stressed, effortlessly smart flows, intricate production, the whole package.” – SPIN Music Editor Charles Aaron on Tanya Morgan
“My personal favorite” mixtape of 2009 – Shake of 2Dopeboyz.com on TiRon & DJ Low Key’s Ketchup
“”Tanya Morgan is bolder and braver than forbearers like Black Star and Slum Village…an expansive tour de force” – Vibe.com on Tanya Morgan
“Best emcee-based mixtape of 2009″ – PopularLemonade.com on TiRon & DJ Low Key’s Ketchup
“The trio’s savory Bridge EP demonstrates why Tanya Morgan has been a critical favorite for the last several years. Their deliveries are effortless, their beats run the gamut from smooth to boom-bappy, and their music has an inspiring vibe.” – The Source
