I saw the M-Phazes show in Sydney at Annandale Hotel on Thursday night. I had a great time. I thought it was a good concept that M-Phazes got each of the rappers to perform their track off his album Good Gracious. Each of the artists only did one track which was different to them doing a whole set. I was expecting to see them perform more tracks but I think the rotation of rappers worked well.

During acts the Amber Liquid Squids started up a cypher outside, we started in a little circle kicking rhymes amongst ourselves, but the circle became bigger and people rushed in to listen.

JackHamma & Mc Texta kicked some dope freestyle freshness. Mr Speaker kicked a few frees aswell.

The next day I got to film Shantan’s interview with the artists from the tour for the JJJ Hip Hop show. Shantan is filling in for Hau at the moment. I got to meet the artists and & I gave them copies of Kaos in King Street. The artists that turned up were Mase & Mattic, Mantra, Muph, Nine High, Illy, M-Phazes & Dj Flagrant.

I got a crew photo with the artists after the interview.

I went to a block party event which was part of Paris Hip Hop festival and met a hip hop crew called End of the Weak. I got to have a cypher with some of the rappers from the crew.

End of the Weak offers MCs from around the world an opportunity to compete against each other on a global scale. For more info check out the website

Here’s the video…

I went to a hip hop gig in Annecy in the south of France and had the chance to beatbox on stage between acts.

I collaborated with several dope hip hop heads. Language is not a barrier for hip hop!

I recorded a track with two local rappers Likyz & Palek.

I was interviewed live last Sunday morning on FBI Radio on the Canvas program with Matt Levinson. Matt interviewed my about my claymation film Kaos in King Street. He asked me questions about the stop motion process and a little bit about the artists involved. I got to beatbox live on air also.
