Black Sheep and Nice 'N' Smooth in Concert

On June 23, 2008, I went to Skully's for the third in Scion's series of free Hip-Hop concerts. (The first two concerts featured EPMD and Too Short).

The show opened with DJ J. Period and a hype man warming up the crowd.

The warm up session included a Hip-Hop trivia bit with free CD giveaways. I ended up winning this Notorious B.I.G. / J. Period mixtape (which is one of the best blend mixtapes I have ever heard):
The opening act was a band called Orgone. They got the crowd and the breakdancers going with some instrumentals.




Next up was Black Sheep. Actually, it was Dres because Mista Lawnge was nowhere to be seen. Dres performed "Similak Child," "Flavor Of The Month," and - of course - "The Choice Is Yours." He performed some more recent material as well.

Nice & Smooth closed out the show. Unexpectedly, Greg Nice was the life of the party. He jumped off the stage and performed two or three songs while standing in the crowd with audience members. He also dry humped a couple of females (you had to see it to believe it) and threw bottled water on the audience.

The duo performed many of their hits including: "Cake & Eat It Too," "Funky For You," "Sometimes I Rhyme Slow," and "Hip Hop Junkies." Also, Greg Nice gave the crowd a beatbox interlude. They closed the show with "DWYCK" which includes a guest verse from Dres of Black Sheep.
