[sk8ter27paulB]

WTF Aussie hip hop doesnt all sound the same

[snowboard722]

Why is it that almost ALL Aussie hip-hop sounds the same? He is the only one that sounds a bit different!

[Chookah]

@snowboard722 Go listen to some Drapht and then tell me another artist that sounds like him

[snowboard722]

@Chookah

>>He is the only one that sounds a bit different!

>>sounds a bit different!

implying that he sounds different than other hip hop i can't tell the difference between Bliss n Eso And Hill Top hood, and a few others to tired to think atm

[rsbatt]

@snowboard722 it all sounds the same to you, cos you only listen to the hilltop hoods you muppet

[snowboard722]

@rsbatt Haha I actually don't, thats the ting i listen to Pez, 360, Drapht, Dutch, Bliss n Eso and Hilltop Hoods

[MrSoapie1]

@snowboard722 All the well know boys.

[MrSoapie1]

[snowboard722]

@MrSoapie1 Haha I guess so... well like i guess cause I am American it sorta sounds the same to me..

[MrSoapie1]

@snowboard722 Ahh true that, makes sense now.

[BigBoiBlah]

[IsoreXYZ]

Finally-Big Up Guys!!!

[ACIZMZ]

Dope track and mantra flows supreme as always. It's only him and fluent form in the last few months that have got me back into aus hip hop

Acizm

[Quicksilver1111]

Isn't this cat from Illzilla? Natually he's awesome, Illzilla is one of the finest hip hop bands Australia has.

[godskritik]

[Skeeny108]

@bilibnob

its Aussie, its dope.

[xxpentekxx]

@bilibnob

im from america man but i cant deny you speak that truth.

american hip hop is TRASH.

[shnierm]

i heard it and kept singing it for like two weeks

[LonkDonk]

Did you just fart?

[TheMCAnzaK]

tight song well done mantra

[ROBtimesTEN]

for anyone hatin on mantra, shut the fuck up and listen, how many people get so much exposure on their fucken debut release? think about that shit yeh? hes a fuckin lyrical master and shits all over wat u probly listen to. big up to aussies

[Getmeripped]

luvin this!!! Blis n eso watch out haha

[kultone]

This is dope.

[lepetelepete]

Songs great but what shits me about Aussie hip hip is the try hard copy of the American image, I mean I see a dude walking down the street with his hat like this and I'm forced to laugh. Its a really sad look. Like the song and words though.

[fpv1992]

@lepetelepete but wat if thats how he dresses normaly. ifnhe changed that then it would just be fake

[M5AFX]

lovin this big time.

[Juanitamovies]

fucking love this song!!!!!!!!!!

[bumos]

fukn nuts, sounds crazyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

[tomkupai]

He is going to be big

[krockz]

Just saw him last night at the Talib Kweli show, he is fuckin sick!

[estb90cus]

If your gonna pull off an aussie accent be consistent. Switching to an Amercian tone on certain words when it suits your rhyme scheme isn't on. We have a sound, it's dope, be proud of it.

[bakeraus]

fuk yeah! love it!

[TheKingbluez]

great track , keep em comin

[sebzy118]

great album definatly worth gettin if u like the Elephant track artists

[gttrsnp]

sweet goatie

[dalmahmay]

[lukashblonde]

@dalmahmay shut the fuck up. This guy is sounding great, especially for his first release.

[dalmahmay]

@lukashblonde nah, aussie rap is gay and so are you, cheers

[Quicksilver1111]

@lukashblonde technically he was a part of illzilla before this, but his solo effort is excellent.

[simo193]

@dalmahmay well you obviously ain't a true blue blooded aussie

[yandiggles]

@simo193

you're not an aussie either you fucking disgrace to hiphop, fuck off redneck. and stop listening to music that was created to fight you dumb cunt bogan fucks. you don't belong here, go listen to ministry of sound or some shit.

[BeatzbyKing]

@dalmahmay gay cunt lol

[dalmahmay]

@BeatzbyKing real gay cunts go thru youtube comments to piss ppl off and also listen to homosexual aussie rap.

HA

[apathy1991]

[yandiggles]

@dalmahmay

[BeatzbyKing]

@dozeoneuk i like accent now

[DSW01]

M Phaded cant read that lads question properly lol, let alone answer it haha! Track isnt that hot, joint off phazes album was fucking DOPE! peace

[iwantmuffin]

Can't wait till this album drops.

[rackdanielz]

the mould be broke alright...tight az mantra!

[MrNiceOner]

fuck yeah.

[slroc]

Fresh beats, sweet clip and Mantra's lyrics true as always. Apart from the glib reference to MJ, Mantra is always on point. It seems the man has been biding his time, honing his skills, waiting for the right moment to pounce.

Counting down the days to get my paws on "Power of the Spoken". Looks like a whole other level with M-Phazes' "Good Gracious".

I see you, Fat Kids.

[aandeuk]

One of the best tracks Ive heard this year so far!

Dope beat, tight lyrics....looking forward to hearing more Mantra in the near future.

[IntelektAUS]

dope track, dope beat, dope spits

[batch2448]

obese cracked onto another golden aussie

[braddfoxx]

@batch2448 they didn't discover him, he's been around for years, it's a shame he's on obese, he and thundamentals are probably the only decent new artists on their roster, obese has turned into a big money making machine, punching out watered down kiddie raps. don't get me wrong, it's amazing what they do for young artists, but it doesn't make up for them selling out

[Vulcansam97]

This guy is awesome. Rap on!

[ProphetRayza]

Mantra is dope as can be but I think he could have used a stronger debut single considering what he really is capable of, (just my opinion)

Looking forward to the album.

Props

[synik1979]

Mantra, your lyricism and delivery never ceases to impress me. One of the best all-rounders in Australia in my opinion! Great editing by Artifact too!...PS: Look out for me hitting the car-boot like a bad-ass at 1:27! Haha :P

[bringbacktherifts]

sounds like delta

[BiasBroadcasting]

Power Of the Spoken is the best shit ive heard in the last 10 years. Mantra the Monster.

[brunello4179]

this is wicked.

[slap618]

I heard they were handing signed posters at Prahran station?

[rapdude99]

Dope video... Mantra deserves much success..

[ruxtonau]

is this by Joske? certainly looks it..

[mphazes]

[ruxtonau]

@mphazes if that was directed at me.... i said JOSKE as in Joske Films. This is the hottest track since .. Mantra's track on your album? I was just asking if she did this film cos it looks like her style.

[mphazes]

@ruxtonau hey sorry! haha bit of an idiot sometimes, nah this is off his album which is out soon! album is incredible!

[joskefilms]

@ruxtonau not my work.. although it was shot in my hood! south kenny represent!

[ishumusic]

Nice one Mantra...looks awesome!

[benjaminfunnell]

Great track from a dope album!

[chumpydoodles]
