The Fresh Ryhmes & Videotape tour featuring Dilated Peoples, The Alchemist, Aceyalone, and 88Keys kicked off Monday June 2nd in Seattle Washington. The tour bus is wrapped to look like an MTA Subway car and just might be the craziest wrap of a tour bus ever. Shout out to Decon (what up Yoram!) and 2KSports. I see a few okayplayer tags on there. Good lookin’!

Word from the road is that Kanye West showed up at the show in Portland where he joined 88 for an encore performance of his song “Stay Up! (Viagra)” followed by a quick acapella verse from Ye’ (hmmm, I wonder if it was the same one from Summer Jam), and then “This Way” with Dilated.


We are sitting here dying to post this Viagra song but considering that 88′s debut album The Death of Adam (excecutive produced by Kanye) doesn’t drop ’till September, we know better than to even ask.

    dope. i caught aceyalone and 88 keys when they rolled thru san antonio, tx. having dilated peoples, alchemist and a guest appearance by kanye west would’ve put it over the edge and i don’t think the small venue would’ve been able to handle that. good to see good hip hop having a successful tour.
