Since he began making music in 1990, San Francisco emcee and producer Equipto has contributed vocals to tons of tracks; he's released a handful of solo LPs and dropped others with his crews 3 Shades of Rhythm and Bored Stiff; and, most notably, collaborated with Andre Nickatina on four albums. His beats are laid back and his flow is casual and straightforward. He spits with a serious street authenticity, but filters his tales though an always positive and ever optimistic lens. His upcoming show at Back Bar SoFa--the eighth anniversary of Cypher--is part of his tour with I.L.A.M. and local-boy-made-good Dirtbag Dan.
