Description
Hyphy pioneer Mistah F.A.B. rose to prominence through battle-rapping, featuring on "Sideshow" with Too $hort, and releasing oodles of mixtapes filled with quintessential examples of the style, like "Super Sic Wit It." A copyright lawsuit and a feud with a radio station dampened his rise, but after co-writing two platinum singles for B.o.B. and Chris Brown, he's found ways to leave his fingerprints on the game. Now, he runs a clothing line (that recovered after a case of arson in April) and does so much charitable work that Feb. 8, 2014, was declared Mistah F.A.B. Day in Oakland. On Saturday, Back Bar SoFa offers a chance to catch a living Bay Area legend.
