The Skatepark of Tampa (SPoT) and Souls of Mischief are at it again. In further proof that anything can happen, the ‘90s hip-hop favorite is coming back to town to play the back patio of The Bricks in Ybor City.

The show announcement comes more than 10 years after Souls Of Mischief played SPoT’s 20-year anniversary alongside Killer Mike at the since-shuttered Czar, which is now Hotel Haya and catty cornered from The Bricks.

Tickets to see Souls of Mischief and Tampa’s own DJ Sandman play The Bricks in Ybor City on Wednesday, June 28 are on sale now and start at $20. Other Florida stops on the run include West Palm Beach (June 29 at Respectable Street) and Orlando (June 30 at The Abbey).

The date is part of a whopping 93-date world tour celebrating the 30th anniversary of group’s 1993, era-defining album, ‘93 ‘Til Infinity, which found the prolific, rap group—A-Plus, Phesto, Opio and Tajai from the Hieroglyphics crew—bringing the underground sounds of its hometown of Oakland, California to doorsteps across the country from Idaho, to Omaha, and, yes, Tampa.

The message and storytelling on the album were relatable in ways that the gangsta rap at the time was not, while the musicality of the intricate beats, hard-to-follow basslines and samples of weird fusion (Billy Cobham) and East coast jazz-rap opened the fanbase up to a different set of weirdos.

Good vibrations, and inspiration, indeed.
