Kilo Kai Rum Presents
Wu-Tang Clan In Concert at Metro – December 15
Tickets Go on Sale Saturday, November 24, Noon

Chicago, IL – Kilo Kai Rum and Metro Chicago announced today that the Wu-Tang Clan will perform at a Kilo Kai sponsored concert at the Metro on Saturday, December 15. This is the third major music event sponsored by the newly launched spiced rum, following a concert at Chicago’s Double Door, featuring Bouncing Souls, and a headline sponsorship of November’s Riot Fest in Chicago. Tickets for the Wu-Tang Clan concert go on sale this Saturday, November 24th at noon at all Ticketmaster outlets. The Metro is located at 3730 N. Clark Street, just two blocks North of Wrigley Field.

Wu-Tang Clan’s rappers consist of multi-platinum producers and artists, TV and film stars, screenwriters, and Grammy winners. The ten members of the New York-based rap group include Method Man, RZA, GZA, Inspectah Deck, Ghostface Killah, U-God, Masta Killa, Cappadonna, and Mathematics. The Wu-Tang Clan is known for their raw, uncut rhymes, and their sampling from old Kung-Fu movies such as Master Killer and Shaolin vs. Wu-Tang. What makes the Wu-Tang Clan unique is that each MC has his own style, yet they often work and appear in concerts together. Method Man, GZA, Ghostface Killah, and RaeKwon have each launched successful solo albums, while as a group, the Wu-Tang Clan recently signed a record deal with SRC Records. Their album, 8 Diagrams, is scheduled for release on December 11, 2007.

Kilo Kai spiced rum has worked hard to establish a connection to the music industry. “Kilo Kai is the rum you will hear about mostly through bartenders, musicians, waiters and others connected to nightlife, culture and hospitality,” said Brad Trayser, President of Apostrophe Brands/Kilo Kai. “Supporting great venues like the Double Door and the Metro demonstrates that we’re not just about selling rum. We want to reward people who love good music with the better taste of Kilo Kai.”

The Metro will host the Kilo Kai sponsored Wu-Tang Clan Concert on Saturday, December 15, 2007. The Metro is located at 3730 N. Clark Street and tickets can be purchased on November 24th at TicketMaster.com and at any Ticketmaster location. DJ Intel will open the event at 10 pm and the Wu-Tang Clan performance will begin around 11 pm. The concert is an 18 and over show, but only those 21 and over will be allowed to enjoy Kilo Kai at the concert. Tickets are $42 in advance, $45 at the door.
