Kanye West Yeezus Tour Adelaide Review

Jim Steps

Adelaide Turnt UP! The Kanye West Yeezus tour landed in Adelaide last night. We can forgive you if you are still dazed from all the ‘flashing lights’, the symbolic references and don’t forget the talk of Fashion Week, but it really was something quite special. With an epic opening that was pre-luded by a barrage of Star Wars theme music, Yeezus rose from underneath the stage with a thick cloud of smoke. A single beam of light shone from the roof, which seemed to herald his arrival. The rapper was decked out in an eagle singlet, leather pants, a thick gold chain … Continue reading Kanye West Yeezus Tour Adelaide Review

Hip-Hop and Police have a long history of butting heads. While artists have adopted the role of liberating the people and stretching the boundaries of activism through music, the police aim to keep the status quo in tact.

The Rugged Man join forces to crate an entirely new definition of entertainment, full of bars detailing their full throttle antics. Both R.A. and ‘Bolic come correct over the animated, bouncy production, courtesy of The Snowgoons (Germany). “Suffolk’s … Continue reading Diabolic Suffolk’s Most Wanted feat. R.A. The Rugged Man

Stream: Profecy The Release EP

Jim Steps

Profecy’s brand new EP, The Release, proves to be an exciting sophomore effort from the Brisbane based rapper. While this EP contains pleasant reminders of Profecy’s 2010 EP, Let the Music Play, mainly in its smooth instrumentation and clever wordplay, we hear a more focused and lyrically driven force from Profecy on The Release. The opening song off this record, ‘Too Many’, draws in the listener with a twinkly swell of stringed instrumentation and quickly raises the stakes with a smooth, yet ferocious opening verse. The word that comes to mind in the first half-minute of this track is FLOW. … Continue reading Stream: Profecy The Release EP

In recent years more than ever, Hip-Hop has been a platform of boasting ones possessions or idea of wealth. While there’s no shame in showing off every so often by toasting to the good life, there’s an ugly truth that needs to be exposed.
