Brothablack , one of Australia’s pioneers of Indigenous Hip-Hop, is now making his long-overdue return to music. With some heavy ammunition in the shape of a new album, “More Than a Feeling” and a renewed hunger for mainstream recognition, Brothablack is well and truly back.



Brothablack has been in the Hip-Hop game for a while now. Many know him as a founding member of the Indigenous Hip-Hop crew, South West Syndicate - 1992/03.



In 2003 Brothablack as a member of ‘South West Syndicate’ won the Deadly Award for most promising new talent in Aboriginal music accepting the award at the Sydney Opera House. He’s also had a single release on The Triple J Hip-Hop Show compilation album.



His new single ‘Are you with me out there?’, is fast becoming an anthem, recently adding some genuine south-west side grunt to the smash hit TV series ‘Dangerous’ (Foxtel) soundtrack.



Brothablack is also an accomplished actor/performer most recently seen in original devised theatre productions with Urban Theatre Projects’ The Longest Night (Adelaide Festival 2002) & more recently in Back Home which was a resounding success at the 2006 Sydney Festival. In June of this year Brothablack will be touring Canada with this groundbreaking production.



Brothablack has a long history working in remote and urban Aboriginal communities teaching hip-hop and helping mentor young people to assert their skills in the subculture.



Brothablack continues to develop his own musical/artistic output whilst actively promoting and encouraging younger and emerging Indigenous hip-hop artists.



In 2004 Brothablack joined forces with UK production unit The Turbomen to produce an album of cutting edge Aussie Hip-Hop. He is now poised to hit Australia with his brand new take on the traditional Hip-Hop blueprint in his solo debut Album “More Than A Feeling”.
