It seems like your just getting into Aussie Hip Hop, so I'd start with Bliss n Eso. Their latest album Flying Colours is very listenable for those that haven't heard alot of Aussie hip hop, and is also really really good IMO so that doesnt hurt.

Otherwise, if you pop down to JB Hifi, Obese Records have a few compilations called 'Culture of Kings' that have a bunch of different artists on it, so those are worth checking out just to see who you like and whatnot

Depends what you like I guess, a couple of my favourites similar to those two are Funkoars and Drapht (both of which were on that new SBS show by the Pizza guys last night btw, good soundtrack but confusing and average show)

 

[cammo84]

the herd, funkoars, vents

 

[Huddo91]

Just getting into TZU now, they've got some good stuff.

 

[Vinnie Vegas]

Yep - As has been mentioned, Bliss N Eso, The Herd, Funkoars, TZU, Drapht, Muph & Plutonic, Vents... All good.

The Herd are easily the best aussie hip-hop group in existance

Can't understand how anyone can listen to this. The noise is cringe worthy.

The only song i can stand listening to is d'opus - million dollar bill


and that's just for the chorus which i like.

Check out the Festival Song by Pez and Jimmy Recard and Falling by Drapht.

Except don't check out Falling. IMO one of the worst songs Ive heard all year

I would ordinarily agree with you
The Herd are really goood tho, talented musicians, good lyrics and the interaction between urthboy ozi battler and jane tyryl(sp) is quality
Good live show as well

Downsyde and Koolism.

 

[Vinnie Vegas]

Downsyde's new album is pretty good.

I went to see 360, Pez, D'Opus & Roshambo, Urthboy and Muph & Plutonic all in one line-up last week at The Hifi Bar, and it was an awesome show. Drapht was supposed to be on the bill, and didn't end up playing, which was massively disappointing, given that I missed his recent gig at Revolver, but 360 & Pez playing made up for it a bit, plus I picked up the Forthwrite Mixtape for $5, which is pretty sweet for 24 tracks.

But more importantly, I honestly don't know why there are so many people complaining about Oz Hip-Hop in this thread - Not only is it closed-minded, but it's clearly a thread about "Aussie Hip Hop" and you entered it just to complain about it? Why didn't you just steer clear if you don't like it?

 

[krusden]

Downsyde and Koolism.

- their first album has been on summer rotation since it was released for me. Love it - all catchy and funky beats. And i ain't a huge hip hop fan either

[Oscarman]

Hermitude, Astronomy Class, Sir Robbo (from Astronomy Class) all go alright.

[cammo84]
