Black Box Sessions: Smif-N-Wessun

This event is part of the inaugural Black Box Sessions. Please note this event is taking place instead of th1rt3en, which was canceled due to unforeseen circumstances. 

Don't miss the Madison DEBUT of Brooklyn’s own Smif-N-Wessun, comprised of Tek and Steele, who have cemented their place as hip-hop legends with a career spanning decades, blending rugged street narratives with soulful beats and reggae-inspired rhythms. Rising with the influential supergroup Boot Camp Clik, Tek and Steele carved their path with timeless classics like Dah Shinin’, earning a permanent spot in hip-hop history. Their dynamic chemistry, honed through years of close collaboration, fuels both gritty anthems and introspective storytelling. With a catalog that’s equal parts hardcore and heartfelt, Smif-N-Wessun continue to set stages ablaze worldwide, proving that authentic Hip Hop is ageless, timeless, and always in season. Come witness a live performance from icons who embody the culture’s past, present, and future.

This concert will be one of the first chances to hear some of their brand-new singles LIVE before their new album is released.

Featuring an opening performance by Milwaukee-based hip-hop artist Wave Chapelle. 

Plus, join us for a free Q&A with Smif-N-Wessun on February 13 at 4:30pm in Winkler Lounge.
