Prophets of Rage Announce North American Tour
Were you not one of the lucky few who caught Prophets of Rage — basically Rage Against the Machine with Public Enemy’s Chuck D. and Cypress Hill’s B-Real on vocals instead of Zack de la Rocha — at their surprise shows in LA and NYC last week? Lucky day: the supergroup will tour four two months starting in August.
At the two surprise shows Prophets of Rage played classic cuts by all three of the members’ famous bands, so fans coming out to shows to hear “Killing in the Name,” “Fight the Power” or “Insane in the Brain” played live shouldn’t be disappointed.
Never to shy away from political action, they’ve also vowed to perform outside The Republican National Convention in Cleveland, OH on July 19th. Shit’s gonna get cray.
