Yo, yo ,yo, show some respect for ma man Rapper Russ, who will be spitting out deep lyrical wisdom at his first ever Dubai gig this month. 

The Atlanta artist will be performing at the Golden Tulip Hotel in Al Jazeer Ghantoot on April 29.

According to Gulf News's tabloid!, the 'Losin Control' singer will be launching a new organiser and brand titled 1520, which "highlights the current global renaissance of urban culture and the deep history of hip-hop."

Russ's brand will encourage aspiring local acts to pursue their skill, as well as enticing international acts to visit the Middle East. Word!

Russ's brand is named after 1520 Sedgewick Avenue, a spot in New York that's recognised as the birthplace of hip-hop.

Wanna see the 24-year-old rapper in action? Tickets cost between Dh250-Dh550 and doors open at 6pm, before Russ kicks off his performance at 8pm (until 11pm).
