AESOP ROCK TO TOUR THE STATES IN SUMMER 2008

AESOP ROCK WITH ROB SONIC AND DJ BIG WIZ BEGIN THEIR NATIONWIDE TOUR THIS AUGUST

The influential indie rapper Aesop Rock with Rob Sonic and DJ Big Wiz begin their nationwide tour this August, following up his critically acclaimed release, None Shall Pass; another verbally intricate and classic Aesop Rock album.

In addition to going out live, late summer will see an Adidas show model by Aesop through Upper Playground that is slated for retail sale at the end of July 2008. Details coming soon.

"Aesop Rock introduced a raw, urgent, intelligent new sound designed to break the monotony of mainstream rap." - ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY

"Aesop Rock is indie rap's surrealist, a spewer and sneerer given to oblique code and artfully jumbled syntax. His voice is a bassy, agile instrument that rhymes 'evil' gracefully with 'amoeba'." -BLENDER
