BROTHER ALI ANNOUNCES FALL CANADIAN TOUR WITH SELECT U.S. CITIES

Testimony from Brother Ali will be heard beginning September 27th in Sioux Falls, South Dakota with a major trek through the empire of Canada before concluding October 20th at the Highline Ballroom in New York City. Ali has recently appeared on The Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson and will be performing on Conan O'Brien on October 19th. The lyrical grind of The Undisputed Truth demands a witness, and the time is upon us, so show up. Tour dates below.

With a rubber-cement flow halfway between Slug's and Slim Shady's, and the ability to count himself as the planet's foremost albino Muslim rapper, Brother Ali is certainly a rare persona in the hip-hop universe. - BILLBOARD

Truth should go down as one of '07's best rap records. - ROLLING STONE

Brother Ali's got that sound, that drive, that believability and, crucially, that affection-inspiring passion on The Undisputed Truth. -LA WEEKLY

"Ali fuses formidable mic skills and unvarnished honesty...with a voice that veers between the tremolo authority of a storefront preacher and a syrupy baritone suited for a Mississippi Delta juke joint"- VIBE

"Producer Ant perfectly underscores Ali's gruff cadence, simultaneously self-assured and stressed, with a melodic lope that scrunches soul vocals underneath loops of bluesy guitar." -SPIN
