Though they weren’t the first to synthesise jazz and hip-hop, Digable Planets remain one of the genre-fusion’s greatest groups, with their 1992 Billboard Top 20 single ‘Rebirth of Slick (Cool Like Dat)’ later earning them a Grammy.
Fronted by rapper Ishmael Butler – otherwise known as the leader of Shabazz Palaces – Digable Planets disbanded originally in 1995, but have since reunited for two celebrated stints. Playing two nights at KOKO, they return as hugely influential legends of the game.
Support from Summer Pearl.
