NEXT LIFE CHECK//

The underground hip-hop outfit People Under the Stairs was formed by Double K and Thes One, who met on the fringe of L.A.’s late-’90s hip-hop underground. The duo, devoted to jazzy samples, danceable beats, intricate rhyming skills, and laid-back humor, debuted in 1998 with the acclaimed “The Next Step” and followed it up in 2000 with “Question in the Form of an Answer”.

Gathering heavy praise and touring with De La Soul, the group took their road experiences and brought it to the studio to record their next album. The final results appeared in the summer of 2002 under the name “O.S.T.”.

Since then PUTS has followed up with 4 more albums and established themselves as one of the top underground hip hop crews.

Known for their energetic stage performances (rated the top performance at this year’s world famous Bonnaroo Music Festival by Spin Magazine), PUTS is bringing the show to South Africa with 3 performances.
