BOOK OF MAC: Oakland rappers Mac Mall and AP.9 (pictured) bring the East Bay to SJ at BackBar

Two West Coast hip-hop legends are touching down in San Jose. Vallejo native Mac Mall worked alongside thizz-generation icons like Mac Dre to help put the Bay Area on the map. Joining him is contemporary AP.9. The Oakland rapper and Mob Figaz member just dropped a new album last month. Titled 94th N’ Jack, the record is a tribute to The Jacka—one of Mob Figaz’s most prominent voices. He was gunned down in Oakland two years ago. The album features appearances by The Jacka himself, other Mob Figaz, the inimitable E-40 and more.
