Big Daddy Kane
Wednesday, October 14, 2026 · 7:00 PM · Blue Note Los Angeles, Central L.A.
The Read
Kane wrote for Biz Markie and Roxanne Shante before his own records, and the technical standard he set in 1988 is still the one rappers get measured against. Seeing him on a small stage is a scale mismatch in the audience's favor.
The Venue

Before
Hollywood Farmers' MarketIvar and Selma close to traffic every Sunday morning for a certified growers market started in 1991 by the city council office as a weekly event for residents. Around 160 California farmers and food producers set up, and buskers work the corners. It is run by Food Access Los Angeles, formerly SEE-LA.
7:00 PM · Big Daddy Kane
After
Frolic RoomA narrow bar wedged against the side of the Pantages, with an Al Hirschfeld caricature mural running the length of one wall and a jukebox where a sound system would be. There is no kitchen and no cocktail list. The neon sign outside is the one on the postcards and the prices underneath it are dive prices.
