Akrobatik and Mr. Lif are back. The Boston-bred hip-hop duo, better known as The Perceptionists, come to San Jose this week behind their first album in more than a decade, Resolution. Fans of the group might remember the pair from their 2005 album Black Dialogue. The project featured one of their most explosive singles—the bounding, raucous “Let’s Move,” which doubled as one of the tightest songs on the soundtrack for the auto-racing video game Need For Speed: Most Wanted. Resolution finds The Perceptionists kicking raps about things that have changed since the-mid aughts.
