new hilltop hoods record debuted at #1 on the chart last week. could be wrong but I don't recall any other oz-rap topping the chart before this. (except that beatboxer who was on australian idol, maybe.)

haitch (haitch), Monday, 10 April 2006 00:15 (eighteen years ago) link

yeah i was gonna mention that too. that's quite an historical moment.

electric sound of jim (and why not) (electricsound), Monday, 10 April 2006 00:17 (eighteen years ago) link

I just gave that new 'Hoods record a first listen tonite.

I've always found them to be consistent without ever doing anything really spectacular, and this album seems like more of the same. Nothing really jumped out at me much - the posse cut with Funkoars etc sounded good at least.

There's this new MC called "Slim Dusty" on the scene. He's tight, he keeps it down, yo. Check out his shit like 'Tha Crackhizzle With No Crack Pipes'.

boychild, Tuesday, 11 April 2006 03:41 (eighteen years ago) link

we'll send chopper around, I think you'd like him a good deal less.

haitch (haitch), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 03:42 (eighteen years ago) link

Will you tell that to Chopper, boychild, or shall I?

Haha x-post

ratty, Tuesday, 11 April 2006 03:44 (eighteen years ago) link

why are all aussie psychos called chopper?

boychild, Tuesday, 11 April 2006 03:47 (eighteen years ago) link

it's just the one. he's very effective at what he does though.

haitch (haitch), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 03:53 (eighteen years ago) link

you mean turn his suffering into a commodity?

boychild, Tuesday, 11 April 2006 04:01 (eighteen years ago) link

i have no idea about aussie rap but there is a hiphop magazine published out of australia. they cover US stuff too but if you would go to their forum at http://www.stealthmag.com/board/forumdisplay.php?fid=1 and ask about aussie hiphop those folks could help you out

charlie bucket (charlie bucket), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 04:03 (eighteen years ago) link

they made a movie showing him chopping his own ears off with a razor blade, so I guess you could say that, boychild!

haitch (haitch), Tuesday, 11 April 2006 04:37 (eighteen years ago) link

why is necro producing this?

???, Tuesday, 11 April 2006 06:50 (eighteen years ago) link

I still get lines from "I like Fridays" stuck in my head.

Was that by The Herd, and does anyone have lyrics?

I think the only time it's ok for an Australian to put on an American accent is in hip hop. the Australian accent just doesn't sit well.
It's the vibe, y'know?

..and also cultural cringe.

Drooone, Friday, 9 March 2007 00:50 (seventeen years ago) link

Yeah, I kind of agree... though I don't mind an Aussie accent in hip hop, especially if the MC is talking about really Aussie stuff like sticking a piece of garden hose in an Orchy bottle or whatever. I'm interested to know if the yanks on this board hear an American or an Australian accent in these tracks.

moley, Friday, 9 March 2007 00:56 (seventeen years ago) link

someone mentioned constant references to " the 4 elements" - too true - Nz had the same thing 8 years ago. as if being around for ever meant worthiness .
oz hip-hop is certainly starting to sound half decent to non-oz airs finally. my faves are bliss'n'eso ( one half is an american though)...and some of 'the herd'. I really like the tune 'no rider' by guy urthboy from the herd. reggae sample helps

An Australian rapper called 2pec racked up a large bill in a seafood restaurant, before running into the sea to avoid paying, a Queensland court has heard.

Police set off in hot pursuit on jetskis for the man, who later claimed he ran to help a friend give birth on the beach, according to local media.

His bill was over A$600 (£360, $450).

Terry Peck, who has been charged with theft and assault, later said the lobsters were overcooked.

The 33-year-old appeared in court on Monday morning after the incident at Omeros Bros restaurant in Surfers Paradise on the east coast.
He allegedly consumed two lobsters, a baby octopus, 21 vodka oyster shots and "a number of Coronas".

"Oh God! By himself?" said magistrate Joan White when she granted bail, according to ABC News.

A restaurant representative, Mark Hunnybun, rejected the criticism of the standard of cooking, telling the network: "We pride ourselves on cooking our lobsters perfectly."

Australian media have uncovered some of Mr Peck's self-produced music, including one track entitled Ozi Ozi Ozi Oy Oy Oy.
