Live Show Alert: John Forte Plays Highline Ballroom Tonight (NYC)

BK's John Forté plays his final show before heading to Russia to film a documentary.

The world got its first introduction to John Forté through that mid-90s classic, The Score. As part of the Fugees' extended family, Forté proved he could rock the mic. Now, so many years (and some jail time) later, he's dabbling in folk and spoken word with his weary, soulful voice. There's nothing that could make a man turn to an acoustic guitar and metered verse more than a stint in prison and a pardon from President Bush. Check him out tonight at Highline Ballroom. He leaves next for Russia where he'll record an album and shoot a documentary (and keep a tour diary for Complex.com—more on that later), and this will be his last Stateside show for some time.
