Shadow<\/strong> \u2013 Perth\u2019s own (and the mastermind behind Sorry I\u2019m High<\/strong>) \u2013 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<\/strong> reps Melbourne with raw, no-nonsense lyricism and serious cred; his latest project features Aussie hip-hop icons like Brad Strut<\/strong> and Ciecmate,<\/strong> so you know he\u2019s coming correct. From the Tweed, ECB Fam<\/strong> brings the gritty lyricism of Northern NSW\u2019s underground, hitting you with real talk and boom-bap energy. Brisbane is double-booked to bring the ruckus: Mesc<\/strong>, one of Brissy\u2019s rising stars, packs a magnetic stage presence and thought-provoking rhymes that get the crowd open, while Coneheadz<\/strong> (the wild duo of Bluntfield<\/strong> & East Coast Alien<\/strong>) drop weed-infused party anthems with gritty storytelling and a comical punk energy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
