ABB/Atlantic recording group Little Brother has announced the first leg of dates for their highly anticipated North American tour. The itinerary, which sees the North Carolina hip-hop trio supporting Fort Minor, follows the group's critically acclaimed 2005 Atlantic debut, The Minstrel Show.
Since officially coming together as a trio back in 2001, Little Brother has been hailed as among hip-hop's most provocative and ingenious groups. They struck an instant chord within the rap community, garnering praise from the likes of Pete Rock and the Roots, as well as catching the ears of Jay-Z, who recruited 9th Wonder to craft tracks for both himself and Destiny's Child. 9th Wonder has gone on to produce a wide array of artists, including Mary J. Blige, Memphis Bleek, Jean Grae, Masta Ace, and Buckshot, among others.
