DJ Spinderella.... "Back Spin OZ Tour"

So this weekend was one that I'll remember for a long time, on Saturday I caught up with some friends from school that I haven't seen in years. You know, the type of friends that it doesn't really matter how long you haven't seen each other you just pick up where you left off. These are those friends, girls I've known since grade one, friends I'll have for a long time.

Then on Sunday DJ Spinderella was gracing Brisbane with "The Back Spin" OZ Tour. Now I cant really imagine a better Sunday afternoon then checking out DJ Spinderella doing what she does so well! DJ Spinderella from Grammy award winning trio Salt n Pepper is not only a pioneer in Hip Hop but also and more personally a positive role model. I know for me she showed just what can be achieved,  what a strong, talented, beautiful woman can do.

The Optimen, RAINMAN, BROADKAST, Vegas Aces & Impossible Odds....

Australian Hip Hop has taken off in a big way. With the likes of Bliss N Eso, Horrorshow & Urthboy taking the lead from down south Brisbane Sounds put on a showcase of local talent. On a rainy night on the 9th Oct, these crews came together to show how we do it up in Brisbane.

Impossible Odds are a great crew, they spin tales of better days, of overcoming odds and of social awareness. They're a voice worth listening to.

The Optimen, these guys have had a big year so far, being one of only 60 artists featured in a leading Australian music conference BigSound. Their track 80's Babies is one of my favourites right now, maybe cause I am one but probably because of the Karate Kid line hahaha.
