Phatchance is one of those open minded rappers. And if you want to dig this album, you have to stay open minded and accept idea's and style's like phatchance.. listening to Phatchance, reminds me of a young Slug and Ant of Atmosphere from the states, a very different approach to life and music. Inkstains is the debut album from Sydney emcee Phatchance, it is a cohesive, emotive and extremely personal album that promises to smash open any remnants of the perception that Australian hip-hop is a genre with a shelf life. With a progressive sound riding somewhere between iconic Australian group The Hilltop Hoods and indie rockers Death Cab For Cutie, Inkstains ventures into new waters for local hip-hop music. Earnest lyrics and melancholy production thread the album together, interspersed with the same kind of high energy numbers that have pulled the genre from relative obscurity to a mainstay of the Australian live music scene. Inkstains is packed full of production from some of the best beat smiths in the country, including Adit (Horrorshow) and Akouo. California’s DJ Hoppa (Bliss N Eso – Up Jumped the Boogie) also provides production for the album, as do locals Konfuzion, Elgen & One Above. personnaly Battle scars is a track that hits close to home for me. Pick up "Phatchance's - Inkstains" Via Obese.
Take it easy hiphop heads, Peace, The Arks Mc.
