# Hip Hop

The Beastie Boys' legendary 1987 co-headlining tour with Run-DMC and the latter's 2002 appearance with rockers Aerosmith are just two of the legendary hip-hop concerts that have played at Pine Knob. Old School and newbies have beat their way into the theater since the late `80s, with the likes of Wiz Khalifa, Drake, Kendrick Lamar, Eve, Mac Miller, Future, Tyler, The Creator and so many others, many headlining their own multi-artist bills. Local hero Eminem, meanwhile, made his only venue appearance with a surprise cameo during 50 Cent's Rock The Mic Tour on Aug. 21, 2003.
