The Domino Room (51 NW Greenwood Ave.) in Bend will host a couple of hip-hop shows over the next week featuring headliners at two very different stages of their career. Here’s what’s up:

• Tonight, fast-rising local MC Chandler P will cap a long night of rap, including openers Kid Cody, Big Price and more. But the primary draw will be Mr. P, a young and talented rapper and producer with a sizable fan base in town. His newest release, “The Missing Pieces” EP, crackles with intriguing beats and rhymes that are raw and sturdy, but also engaging. Showtime is 8 p.m., doors open 7 p.m., and cover is anywhere from free to $5, depending on what you can afford.

• Then on Tuesday, the Domino’s stage will host a rapper with a few more years behind the mic under his belt. We’re talking Slick Rick, aka Rick the Ruler, aka a legit legend of the genre. Rick was one of superstars of hip-hop’s Golden Era, a smooth-talking story-rap specialist with an eye patch and an English accent. He’s also the man behind some of the genre’s most enduring early hits, like “La Di Da Di,” “Teenage Love” and “Children’s Story.” A 5-year prison sentence for attempted murder in the mid-1990s slowed his career, but he’s back now and heading to Bend. Showtime Tuesday is 9 p.m., with doors opening at 8 p.m. J-Meast opens. Advance tickets cost $25 plus fees; outlets are listed at www.randompresents.com. If you wait to buy at the door, it’ll cost you $28.
