SEC to Host Nov. 11 Hip-Hop Concert Featuring Blackalicious

Skidmore's Student Entertainment Company will present the first-ever appearance of Blackalicious in concert on campus this Saturday, Nov. 11, at the Sports and Recreation Center.

Blackalicious is an alternative hip-hop duo featuring Gift of Gab (Tim Parker) and Chief Xcel (Xavier Mosely). The duo started recording in the early 1990s and their first recording on the Soulsides label featured the underground hit "Swan Lake." Since then they've released a number of recordings including last year's highly successful The Craft.

Tickets to the Skidmore concert are $20 each and may be purchased at Case Center on campus or through Ticketmaster. A limited number of tickets will be available at the door the night of the event. Doors will open at 8 p.m.
