Oso Negro takes to the high road with DJ Surebert, May 1-7. During the "Night Creatures" tour, they'll traverse the mountains of CO, NM, & UT, traveling from Oregon in support of Oso & Weighn Beats' new Werebear EP. This team of Oso & Surebert will keep crowds bumping with Bert's dj'ing & kinetic production, and Unkie O's energetic live sets. Sponsored by Sibbz Longboards & Whiskey Woodz skateboard companies, Boise, ID.

The Werebear EP by Oso Negro & Weighn (Boise, ID) is a dark and nimble run through rites of adulthood: discovery & independence, choices & consequence, separation from community, and reflection. Weighn's sequenced beats range from spacious and dour to driving and vigorous, but always with overcast tones. Oso's melancholia grows as he travels the arc from wonder to disillusionment, digging deep with lyrics and flows throughout the journey. Werebear features album art by, and a collaboration on "Maniacs" with, underground Bay legend, Z-Man (San Francisco). A funky remix of this collabo by Fresh Kils (Toronto) brings a re-imagined flavor to the track, making it groove in a whole new way from the original.

Oso Negro Hip-Hop (Oregon/Mississippi) started his emceeing & singing in Mississippi during 2001, with the electro-southern-funk-hip-hop band New Madrid Click, then formed the hip-hop group H-BOMS, and has been making solo moves throughout the western US since 2010. A twist of reggae, a splash of crooning and the ever-present spirit of live music feed this hungry bearʼs desire to mix it up, keep it fun and stimulating. In 2014, he dropped the Unkie O LP, which was included in Radio Boise's "Krush Groove 208"'s top 10 list of the year's releases.
