Above the Law: Fat Tony

On Tuesday, July 26, 2011 at 6pm the Clocktower Gallery is pleased to present underground hip-hop phenomenon, Fat Tony in another free edition of the Clocktower's Above the Law performance and installation series. Known for his engaging lyrics, energetic performances, and original beats, Fat Tony has released numerous mix-tapes and compilations. His first full length LP, RABDARGAB met with immediate critical acclaim.

For his Above the Law performance, Fat Tony will begin with a DJ set of his artistic influences and continue with a reinterpretation of his pioneering album RABDARGAB with freestyle lyrics and theatrical interludes.

Organized by the Clocktower's Curator of Performance and Installation Joe Ahearn, Above The Law is a performance and installation series highlighting young and emerging artists and musicians. Titled in reference to the various legal offices and agencies that occupy the floors in the Clocktower’s City-owned building, Above The Law challenges preconceived notions about pop and avant garde art and music by featuring artists, bands, and performers that draw from both traditions.
