In their latest hip-hop adaptation of Shakespeare’s work, the Q Brothers and their co-conspirators, Postell Pringle and Jackson Doran (all ably backed by DJ Clayton Stamper), translate the Moor’s tale to the modern music industry. Though compressed and refreshed, both story and wordplay find rich parallels with the original text. The choice to keep Desdemona heard but not seen yields chilling returns in a murder scene that silences the beats—including our hearts’.
