Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) January 2, 2004 -- Sean Healy Presents will play host to Slick Rick at Hollywoods Key Club, January 21st, 2004. This will be the performers first Los Angeles performance since his release. Ricks project, The Art of Storytelling", is slated to be the tale spinners hottest project to date according to music reviewers. Media passes are available upon request.
While performing live on a Florida cruise ship in the summer of 2002, INS officials seized the rapper and brought him to a prison. Although the organization had unsuccessfully been trying to deport Rick since 1991, they finally appealed enough times to get the Board of Immigration Appeals to make a ruling in favor of sending him back to England. Although his wife, children, and parents are all American citizens, the fact that Rick was born in England is enough of a technicality to warrant his deportation. The situation was even more frustrating because of the INS's insistence on deporting the rapper, spending more than ten years trying to send him back despite the ridiculous circumstances surrounding the situation. His parents had lived in London because of their job situation, and moved him back to the United States at the age of 11. He had never bothered to change his citizenship because of the young age at which he had been relocated. Held in prison through the end of the year, famous friends like Russell Simmons and Will Smith attempted to help his cause but he was continually refused bail." (John Bush, All Music Guide)
