MOST OVERRATED NZ BANDS/PERFORMERS

I love New Zealand Rap music. Not normal Hip Hop because thats American culture. I love Haberdash Rap! The Robba! MC Mas, Tokie Kones, JCK. Why is everybody down on NZ music I bet you guys dont even go watch any rap groups. Theres a whole new underground scene doing some seriously awesome stuff! Aight!

this thread is SO old!

truebliss

No one rates True Bliss, dude.

I went to their record signing. We nearly got beaten up by a bunch of Westie parents for pushing in. It was great.

/No one rates True Bliss, dude.

someone brought their cd, odviously they rate them as good.

Carly Bindings a musician sam. god knows about the rest.

P Money

4 Corners. Scribe.

That NZ Hip Hop get the fuck up shit is just SHIT!

Any hip hop "artists"

Yeah NZ Hip Hop does seem to be kinda shit. Nesian Mystic too.

Che Fu is good. But he isn't really hip hop any more is he? or is he?

NZ Hip Hop just isn't as good as American hip hop (I'm talking good American Hip Hop... like J5, De La Soul, etc.)

The lyrics are all so meaningless.

I should probably retract the comment they all suck, I like a bit of Dark Tower. Bit of humour, bit of thought in those songs. Not just "I'm cool! Yeah! Pride! Hip hop is cool!"

Actually... respect to GND.

What the fuck is this, 1983?

just cos you dont like it doesn't make it shit. i like hip hop amoungst the many genres i enjoy, but they seem to be doing well, and being decent (from what ive noticed) role models in the nz industry. do we really only want one kind of genre? We should promote all.

Personal attacks are ok 4 the topic, but can we refrain from genre bashing? just a thought...

Definitely Dark Tower, definitely 4 corners.
Who cares, if we got hip hop in the first place - thats all im concerned about.
Nothing can really beat true American hiphop cos thats where the real domain is but still yes we've got to hand it over to our little minority hiphop kiwi's out there.

//P Money

i actually think P Money is very talented, hes probly the only person in the 'hip hop community' who has any talent whatsoever. Didnt he come 3rd in the world deejay champs a few years back??the rest are just talk into a mic.

//genre bashing

Yes, I withdrew my comment that it was *all* overrated. I still think basically all the mainstream NZ hip hop, that is played on the radio & TV is utter rubbish.

Nice guy Eddie
ur harsh bro: P - Money - thats harsh

Maybe it is light - but i would sure like to listen to King Kapisi or Che Fu, or any of the boys than to killing, shooting, murder, westside, eastside, segregation amoungst people etc. Snoop Dogg, Eminem, all of them - they have their place too. But good on NZ role models to promote (from what i've heard and seen so far - i could be wrong) unity amoungst nzers and that nz is a great country. It has it's downfalls, but it really is a great country.

To an extent. Its light shit. Good that its NZ though.

Yeah for sure. I dont know why every hiphop hater is downing our hiphop community cos man we doing it & regardless if we are a small (but beautiful & fresh) country we are doing our stuff. This is music man! You should be happy we are getting versatile in every stage.

I dont admire him at all. He's just a greedy punk. But then again, he has his ways in order to get to where he's come. I watched him in an interview, quite cold but very self imposed..cant blame him he is where he is now..

nz hip hop is tha shit....scribe pmoney king kapisi nesian mystik dawn raid etc.. they fuckin rock!!! us shud b supportin all da NZ music.
GO NZ HIP HOP!!!!!!

Lena O, you bitch. Making me vent negative energy... I like the underrated artists thread heaps better.

(Best Jack Nicholson voice...)
If we all work together, there's no limit to what we can accomplish!
Why can't we just learn to live in peace with one another, mmmmm?
Why can't we all... JUST GET ALONG?

fuck you, boy. All I speak is THE TRUTH!

Hehe.

¿mars attacks?

Bak BAAAAK! Bak bak bak Baaak BAAAK!

The Mint Chicks

PanAm

that mint chicks song licking letters shows great talent (even if it sounds a little bit too much like At the Drive In)

nah the mint chicks are pretty damn good i reckon . .
it's a good thing they sound like At The Drive-In, because at least they're in the interesting 'progressive' end of the punk rock spectrum

Definately...if your gonna play noisy punk, might aswell make it edgy as opposed to california sounding b.shit.....or jokey stuff like Rubicon.....Mint Chicks sound pretty fresh

elemeno p

No fucking doubt there.

yep definatly elemeno p

Elemeno P are the new Exponents

Count my vote too.

i started to think they sucked after i saw them live

Voom - no! wait...

err....HDU?
