x-clan.jpgWhile it’s been over a year since the passing of Professor X, the legendary group, X-Clan, is still going strong. Fresh off their 2006 album, Return From Mecca, the group has announced they will join The Tempest tour with the Insane Clown Posse and Twiztid. “This tour is perfect proof that real hip-hop reaches all barriers. ICP and X-Clan would have been the furthest thing from anybody’s mind as a tour combination,” says lead MC, Brother J in a press release. “I think the fans will be excited to see a different side of X-Clan. We understand ICP’s crowd enjoys freedom of speech to the fullest, and that is what X-Clan has always been about.” The dates for The Tempest tour are as follows.
