The Common Grounds Coffeehouse, in the basement of Akers Hall, is again the best bet for this weekend, presenting Ann Arbor’s Athletic Mic League tonight.

Described as a rap group with smooth flow, the seven-member team mixes rap, jazz and funk together into an irresistible sound that will please any hip-hop guru.

Selfsez, Wandering Image and Third Degree will open the show.

Hiphopinfinity.com called one of Athletic Mic League’s first albums, “The Thrill is Gone,” released in 2000, “one of the Midwest’s best albums of the year, and one of the best-produced LPs in all of underground hip-hop.”

Songs can be sampled at its Web site, www.athleticmicleague.com.

Tickets are $5 for MSU students with ID and $6 for everyone else. Doors open at 7:30 p.m. and the show starts at 8. For more information, contact the Common Grounds Coffeehouse at cgrounds@msu.edu or visit www.thecommongrounds.com.
