Editors' Take

Fierce streetcorner prophets Rebel Diaz have mesmerized block parties and academics alike with their bilingual rap. They're takin' it to the Knitting Factory for an all-ages show.

THE KNITTING FACTORY 7026 Hollywood Blvd., Hollywood, CA 90026 All Ages
for the first time in Los Angeles REBEL DIAZ from NYC/Chicago www.myspace.com/rebeldiaz
Posted in the South Bronx, by way of Chicago, Rebel Diaz's music is on blast amongst the freedom fighter set. From welcoming Hugo Chavez in the BX, to opening for Rage Against The Machine in a migrant farmworkers action, they've been the pulse of the movement in the last year. Their music can be heard anywhere from the local block party to immigration protests and college radio. Rebel Diaz’s explosive set at this past summer’s Black August concert in NYC alongside Common, dead prez, and Mos Def, introduced many to this fierce bilingual trio. Fronted by the Afro-Boricua songstress/mc Lah Tere and Chilean brothers RodStarz and G1, this group prepares to be true "periodistas de la esquina/ street journalists"; reporting to the masses the reality of the streets and revolutionary struggle. Getting love from the academic world for their poignant social commentary, the crew has gained momentum in the University lecture/panel circuit, taking national conferences by storm with their energetic performances and workshops. Recently chosen by URB magazine as one of The Next 100 groups of 2008, Rebel Diaz looks to take their bilingual flow and global view on Hip Hop into the 21st century and beyond.
