I have no interest in white rappers. Unless your name is "Beastie Boys."

There are a bunch of talented white rappers like Aesop Rock for example and Brother Ali is among them. His new album is quite good.

Brother Ali is the man and he is going to bring the truth on 4/27. He had a pretty good sized crowd last year even though he had the first show of the day/festival. It looks like since Ali is at the very botom of the poster again my Coachella 2007 will begin the same way as my Coachella 2006 did.

Skeptics should check out the MP3s attached to that article and judge for yourself if the music is good.

Skeptics should shut the fuck up and stop talking shit... Because, for the most part, they're a bunch of white-trash KROQ listening faggots going to Coachella so they can experience zomg RAGE's REUNION LOL and take up space at a festival about to go down the shitter. Skeptics can fucking sit and spin, Brother Ali is the most talented rapper to come onto the scene SINCE Aesop (and Sage, and Slug, and Barman, to name a few other WHITE rappers you're gonna miss out on.)

Keep eatin' saltines fuckface.

Ali is the best rap act of the weekend.

Tuesday is amazing. Besides the Roots i am looking foward to Brother Ali the most as far as hip hop acts are concerned.

Uh, Brother Ali is African American, he just happens to be albino. His new album was released this week and it kicks ass! He will be a great way to start Coachella again.
