The Doctor’s Orders celebrate their 10th Birthday later in the year, and to mark the milestone they've cobbled together a huge bill of transatlantic superstars for the hip hop enthusiast on Saturday 12th September at Kentish Town's The Forum.

Headline duties fall to the legendary DJ Premier. One half of Gang Starr and a hall of fame producer of considerable clout, he's brought his patented boom bap to every rapper worth their salt in the game, Jay-Z, Nas, Biggie, and Snoop among them, whilst even making Christina Aguilera, Limp Bizkit and Craig David sound good.

The Stick Up - 100% DJ Premier by Brooklyn Radio on Mixcloud

This show sees him bring a live band to showcase his huge arsenal of greatest hits; think a gully Nile Rodgers backed up with his fearsome DJ skills. Brooklyn Radio's brilliant mix above highlights the breadth of Preemo's back catalogue.

He'll be supported by Gilles Peterson fav Fatima and her Eglo live band and UK hip hop quartet Four Owls, as well as Doctor's Order's residents Spin Doctor, Mr Thing, Mo Fingaz, and Russ Ryan & MC Pranksta. Head here for Doctor's Order Tenth Birthday tickets.
