Hons – Hons Solo

8 02 2013

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…
4 friends created one of the most irresponsible groups in Australian music, 10 years later they are still around and continue to be a burden to their fans and loved ones.

Now, on the eve of his best friends (and fellow crew member – Mr Trials) wedding, Hons, has been given the task of planning the Bucks party to end all Bucks party’s. Hons assembled a 6 track solo EP in order to raise sufficient funds to send Trials off with a universal size Big Bang. The aptly titled Hons Solo is produced and recorded with help from the rest of the Funkoars, production from Hilltop Hoods’ Suffa, Adelaide crew Third Degree and Melbourne mates Maundz and WIK of Crate Cartel.

The digital only EP is available for a short time only download for $7.99 or FREE with the purchase of a ‘Hons Solo‘ t-shirt. 100% of the proceeds from the EP will go towards Trials bucks night, so lets send him off proper, and probably get him arrested.

1. Let The Good Times Roll Feat. Maundz
2. Showtime
3. Larry Emdur
4. Down to The Felt
5. Masterplan Feat. Third Degree
6. Whiskey Bar

It’s been a massive year for the young South Australian emcee/producer. With 2013 shaping up to be his best yet. Purpose’s brand new album Where It Starts is set to drop in around 5 weeks, with 3 huge singles already out and crunching the airwaves, this is sure to be a massive release.

“This is something I put together for you peeps for checking out my music/sharing it/coming to shows – you are appreciated. I wanted to get in early and give you a song that will make you want to get drunk waaaaaaaaaaaaaay before the party starts haha.

No really. If you have the day off, get amongst it. Huge shout outs to the dudes who’s beats I used on the track – nothin’ but love. I wanted to do something with just Australian Hip-Hop beats this time around just because I think there’s so much quality shit being made that it made sense. Some old, some new – all crazy. It puts a different spin/vibe on the mash-up too. I dig it, hope you do too”. – Purpose

Track Credits:
Spit Sydnicate – Pick It Up
Hilltop Hoods – Clown Prince
Funkoars – It’s All Good
M-Phazes/BNE – Walk On Air

19 06 2012

The 2nd single from Purpose’s upcoming album Where It Starts is dropping tomorrow July 20. The track titled Alive, will be released alongside the official film clip shot & edited by EightLimb Films. To celebrate the launch of the new single Alive, Purpose has been releasing a video a day until the single finally drops tomorrow. 

Late last we were treated to a sneak peek of the new film clip and single. Yesterday Purpose also released a nice little clip from when he visited the triple j studio’s in Sydney last week. There is a bit of the interview and of course it wouldn’t be a Purpose appearance without some live bars.

The track that he performed live on the triple j Hip-Hop show was set to be over a different beat, but the disk didn’t work on the night. He recorded it yesterday over the music it was prepared for, so people could hear it the way it was intended. 

Today’s video features footage from Purpose’s most recent performance/backstage at the sold out Come Together Festival 2012 held in Sydney. Shot & edited by Rush, the video features some great local talent. Where Is Starts coming soon.
