[Disclosure: The author of this article will be performing at this show. Nappy Roots is worth the conflict. --Ed.]

Nappy Roots is a Southern-based rap group that scored big a few years ago with a chain of hits that seemed to dominate the radio airwaves. Sonically the group is similar to the likes of the Dungeon Family, but stylistically they share a slight resemblance to Wu-Tang Clan. On July 19 Nappy Roots will be performing live alongside an action-packed opening lineup consisting of a few choice members from notable St.Louis underground hip-hop crew the Force.
