Chap-hop pioneer Mr. B brings his comedy music show on the history of hip-hop to the White Rock Theatre in Hastings.
Mr. B The Gentleman Rhymer brings his Probably Accurate Hip-Hop History Tour to The White Rock on Sunday 22nd November, with the show starting at 7.30pm in Studio 27. It's a comedy music night that works its way through the history of hip-hop, and it's billed as a 'Probably Accurate Hip-Hop History Show'.
If the name doesn't ring a bell, Mr. B is the man who invented chap-hop back in 2007. He'd spent years as a Britrap hitmaker first, having written 'Eat My Goal' and shared stages with Grandmaster Flash and Gravediggaz. Since then he's taken his beats, rhymes and manners around the world, from the Royal Albert Hall and Osaka to Glastonbury and the Edinburgh Fringe. The album that goes with this tour is his fifteenth, so there's a fair bit of ground behind him.
He's also popped up in some odd places along the way. He's rapped for Jeremy Paxman on Newsnight, played live on BBC Radio One for Rob Da Bank, Nick Grimshaw and Scott Mills, and appeared on Radio Two with Claudia Winkleman and Steve Lamacq. He's talked hip-hop on Romesh Ranganathan's podcast, and the Daily Mail once described him as 'Controversial'.

The show itself mixes interpretations of rap favourites with his own original songs, which tend to drift into territory you wouldn't usually associate with the genre: cricket, pipe smoking, high society and interfering with livestock. It's comedy music, and the age limit is 14s and under must be accompanied by an adult aged 18 or over. Tickets are £19.35 to £21.60, with member tickets available and £2.25 off for over 65s and under 30s.
