Hip-hop fans are in for an epic night as Method Man (of Wu-tang Clan), Redman (Def Squad), and Xzibit will take the AMSOIL Arena stage on Saturday, May 3, 2025. Underground rap icon Immortal Technique will join as a special guest performer.

Method Man and Redman, longtime collaborators known for their high-energy performances, first joined forces on their platinum-selling album "Blackout!" in 1999. Method Man rose to prominence as a member of the legendary Wu-Tang Clan before launching a successful solo career, while Redman established himself as one of hip-hop's most distinctive voices through his work with Def Jam Records.

Xzibit, the Detroit-born rapper who gained mainstream recognition as the host of MTV's "Pimp My Ride," brings his gritty West Coast sound to the lineup. With hits spanning over two decades and collaborations with Dr. Dre and Eminem, he complements the East Coast styles of Method Man and Redman.

Immortal Technique, known for his politically charged lyrics and underground credibility, rounds out this powerhouse bill. His thought-provoking content and technical prowess have earned him a devoted following outside the mainstream music industry.

Tickets are on sale Friday, March 14 at 10:00 AM at Ticketmaster and at AMSOIL Arena box office from 10-2, Wednesday-Friday.
