Description
Andre Nickatina is a local legend. Over the course of his 20-plus years in the game, the gangly emcee has built a diverse fan base--comprising privileged college partiers, philosophical backpack-rap heads and straight-up gangsters. A perpetual banner-waver for the Bay, he takes a moment at every show to pay tribute to his passed compadre, Mac Dre. With a flow that is both staccato and gymnastic, the S.F.-born Dre Dog skips through bars with ease. Known for underground hits, such as "Smoke Dope and Rap" and "Ayo For Yayo," he is capable of being unapologetically callous, insightfully introspective and absolutely absurd. (JF)
