It’s been a quarter century since The Beatnuts brought Enoch Light’s shopping mall disco-pop out of Sears and into hip-hop via “Watch Out Now.”

The Queens crew of Latino rappers and producers is the latest headliner for MC Serch and Sandman’s “Timeless Hip Hop” series and is joined by another Queens MC (Mr. Cheeks), plus Craig G, who spent the ‘80s and ‘90s running with Marley Marl and his Juice Crew.

Different from a traditional rap show, the series lets legends of the game share hits in a free-flowing form, complete with storytelling.

Tickets to see The Beatnuts play Hard Rock Cafe at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tampa on Wednesday, Feb. 21 are still available and start at $25.
