Big Pooh was at home last night on stage at The Black Cat in Washington, DC. Literally, at home. His brother and sister were both in the audience for last night's performance and Pooh announced to anyone that didn't already know, that he was originally from Alexandria, VA, just 15 minutes away from the stage where he, Phonte and Darien Brockington were currently breathing life into hip hop. They began the set accordingly with one of the standout tracks from the Get Back "When Everything is New", sort of a symbolic way of reassuring "us" that Phonte and Big Pooh are Little Brother. What followed was alot of material from Get Back and The Minstrel Show coupled with an occasionally joint from The Listening and of course a little bit of the Phonte Coleman comedy hour; all of which made my first Little Brother experience a good one. Just look at their t-shirts if you want to get an idea of just how much they put into their live shows. And no it wasn't that hot in there. If they are anywhere near, I suggest you go see them. You won't regret it.
Man, LB was in Atlanta last week too. The show was crazy. You already know how they do, fam. That was my second LB show but anytime they come thru, you know I'ma be in attendance.
