The former Boogie Down Productions leader has a clutch of Florida dates lined up in January and right in between shows in Gainesville and West Palm, the New York MC has a big show in the City Beautiful at the Abbey.

KRS-One headlines the Abbey on Saturday, Jan. 11 2020, at 8 p.m. Tickets can be purchased here.
