Mardigrass Oz Hip Hop Showcase

Loading Events

Get ready to spark up MardiGrass with a high-energy hip-hop kickoff presented by 420 Superstore, Moodstate, and Sorry I’m High! It all goes down at the Nimbin Skatepark on Saturday, May 3 at 11:30 AM – and this lineup is pure fire.

Shadow – Perth’s own (and the mastermind behind Sorry I’m High) – unleashes an aggressive UK-inspired grime flow honed over 100+ shows supporting hip-hop heavyweights (he even rocked a sold-out Hilltop Hoods tour). MentalAz reps Melbourne with raw, no-nonsense lyricism and serious cred; his latest project features Aussie hip-hop icons like Brad Strut and Ciecmate, so you know he’s coming correct. From the Tweed, ECB Fam brings the gritty lyricism of Northern NSW’s underground, hitting you with real talk and boom-bap energy. Brisbane is double-booked to bring the ruckus: Mesc, one of Brissy’s rising stars, packs a magnetic stage presence and thought-provoking rhymes that get the crowd open, while Coneheadz (the wild duo of Bluntfield & East Coast Alien) drop weed-infused party anthems with gritty storytelling and a comical punk energy.
