This Thursday the Soul Café checks into St. Louis’ newest hotspot, The Vault. Grammy-Award nominated rapper Common, known for his powerfully conscious, thought provoking lyrics shares the stage with ?uestlove, drummer for the Roots, another rap act with political consciousness. On the forefront of the progressive hip-hop movement, Common’s music has ranged in topic from unplanned pregnancy to the over-commercialization of hip-hop. ?uestlove, who produced Common’s Like Water For Chocolate CD, will be on the turntables for the after-party.
