Hell I don't even know if this matters...dude create a sound that is yours and yours alone...here in the western world...we have far and way too many "GANGSTAH'S" and their noise....don't emulate us,..be repulsed and search for the opposite......we search for freedom,..you have that.."gangstah' is an excuse to be poor....and brudda,...i know that story far too true
There has been some WICKED DnB coming out of NZ and AUS for some time now. Especially stuff like this and the ever so massive Dub Step. Keep it coming!!
Far i remeber seeing this on C4 one night and just liked it as soon as i heard it, just greatness bro ! Much respect also just heard on the news you got the singstar contract shot bro that awesome ! Kia kaha and stay safe bro. Keep the mean beats coming
end of this tune remids me of shy fx great tune still trying to get the fcuking album. couldnt get it bk in uk now i,m in canada cant get it here neither lol grrrr
for the stupid comment about bloods and crips...THe KIWIS were gangs long before those homo USA gangs.....WEre do you think all the inking came from...think bout it...y would anyone wann imitate that shit for?
@1494tam ~ ur wrong.. where'd u get ur information from? where do you think the gangs here in nz get all their shit from? there are crips and bloods because people in this country watch too much american movies and they think they're bloodsters or crip ~ grow a brain, we aint black or red fool we are BROWN!! Maori's are brown, always have been and always will be and yeah we did do inking but we're not the only indigenous tribe to have done that back in the day ! Do ur research!
@1494tam Actually, the American gangs did come first. I live in New Zealand, so I'm not defending America, I'm just being correct. There's gangs all over the world. NZ didn't come first.
Hey BudsClass229 this video is about overcoming tha Oppressor.Tha colour red represents blood & fire and is an acknowledgment to all tha fallen liberators.Tha bandana represents tha guerilla tactics sometimes needed to get our music played, heard & seen, for tha truth is manipulated by tha media, government, TV, and police. All tha best my friend...
ENGLAD ADORES YOUR MUSIC DUDE, ITS SHIT HOT, MUCH BETTER THAN THE MASS PRODUCED SHIT YOU GET OVER HERE DRIFTING ITS WAY OVER FROM .. AMERICA. keep your tunes down to earth and your talent in your heaqrt and you'll go far xxx
Music is the one true constant in my disabled sons life.
Yours Tiki, lifts his soul and lights up his face with a smile ... Lyn and I shared hosp shifts often over the years with our two boys :( ...
Thanks Tiki, you are an amazing and talented artist and Im sure the rest of the world will eventually hear you, and appreciate great music, almost as much as my son.
We hear him... I myself am from Germany and i know several people from around the world that really appreciate his music as well as other NZ music. One of the best scenes around worldwide at the moment in my opinion due to its genuine, authentic and innovative sound.
My fav song by far off your album. mean! loved you in sal dub too. miss those hypnotic beats with your vocals flowin over the top (push on thru..)..but fully respect your new work. chur
Seen Mr Tiki 3 times live including CoroGlen, and met him briefly at an awards dinner - this guy is incredibly talented, plus a nice guy in person :) Of the whole album, I love this beat the most with the bass cranked right up..
Yo qotsaandsoadfan1 wot up dude, thanx 4 tha comment but im not mean at all, im actually a hippie! This video is directed at the media, police, tv, gangs and all those who control and manipulate tha truth. Te mana motuhake o tino rangatiratanga! liberation of tha spirit, liberation of tha soul.... thats wot this is about. Peace and Light
@tikidub HEY UNCLE TIKI NAH JUST JOAX HEY TIKI FUK MAHN U ARE SO Osum MAHN U SHOULD KUM AND TEACH MEEH HOW TAH BEEH LYKE U EH TAP BK WHEN U GHET THIS K LOVE U TIKI TAANE
damn u so hot! Your the kind my mother would love lol. Does anyone know a song Tiki sang in Ashburton a couple of years ago when he sang a song that was a tribute to his father that had the haka (?) in it? my friend commented on seeing him live and said hes AWESUME. Cant wait to see him in concert or at the pub lol
Dude seriously i was hating new zealand for a while just the whole feeling of the gangs violence etc SERIOUSLY YOUV'E INSPIRED ME THRU YOUR MUSIC AND MAORI MANA AND I HOPE I CAN DO THE SAME THRU MY ART. now in my artwork i add maori designs so people know where i come from i am no longer ashamed to be a new zealander BIG UP keep up the good work.
Tiki isnt the kinda person to give a rats arse what people think of him. If any of you have met him...hes a right bit stuck up. Aaah i can picture the hate comments ima get from saying that. Its a pity i dont care. Tiki is a good artist dont get me wrong. Oh one question...why's everyone comenting on this like its really tiki taane?
Hey thebitch27 its tiki here. Have we met before? did i ignore you or something, is that why youre upset with me? if so im sory dude, i honeslty try and be polite and acknowledge all tha of peeps i meet.And youre right i am stuck up sometimes, but im working on that dude, i have a many personallity faults actually that im trying to make better.I do find it pretty hard to deal with all tha media attention sometimes (duno if you know wot thats like....) anyways all tha best.Peace
Righto tiki Donno if i know what thats like? Awwh yep. rubbing it in that your famous and im not much?
Look, i have nothing against ya music, im just expressing my fucking opinion yeah. Ever heard of freedom of speech? Why take it to heart mate, im only one person.
Sup Tiki! You're the man oi! Fully made my night when you mc'd at state of mind at zen back in July :P Total talents, seriously good luck tonight I'll be glued to the telly haha!
I had heard "Always on My Mind" on the radio for weeks and loved it. It was only recently found out it was a Kiwi! Have been following your stuff and it's so awesome! I hope you make waves outside NZ because NZ music is so good and just doesn't get the coverage overseas. Hopefully YouTube & MySpace helps that way. Keep it up man, awesome!
Tiki...Dont even give the haters recognition... instead focus on the ppl who give you positive praise...i dont see why you waste your thoughts on them...to me they are ignorant and ignorance is bliss! It upsets me to see an intelligent creative mind like yours picked at with negative unnecessary comments. Your music heals...your music inspires...your music has hope and it touches all walks of life...you truely are mean maori mean!!!
Ok shot bro youre right, but i gota stick up for myself and thats just tha way i am. Big ups homie, i do holla back at tha choice comments too. Bless!
Nice work tiki!! I remember you from braspadeek (sp??) days, your creativity has inspired many people in the music industry, keep it up.
This is a great song, i particularly like the sick low riding beats at the end. Do you, or did you ever just think about producing straight hard driving DnB?? under another alias. probably you know there are a small portion of your fans out there that would like to hear some more production from you in this field,. cheers bruv.kiaora
Dont confuse an argument with a personal attack, bro. Im argumentative yes, but im not being a bitch. If having a diverse opinion to you qualifies me to being catergorized as such then i think thats just a largely childish remark on your part.
I do take it as a personal attack as i put everything into my art, i care about it with passion, and to have an arm chair critic who hasnt done anything remotely artistic, and who sits behind his computer and attacks me for not being responsible, and all this from some one who doesnt do a dam thing to help our tamariki.... now thats just sad.I realy do wish you all tha best in your search for tha truth and light.PEACE OUT.
You are fantastic and your music has gone from strength to strength since Salmonella Dub. I have followed your work for years now - and this is your best stuff yet. You are an artist and I look forward to more outstanding work in years to come. Peace to you.
Wicked Dyphalse thanx heaps for tha positive support, it means alot, especially from tha old skool sal dub fans. Its been an awesome hikoi for sure, keep it locked.
Tiki bruv when u guna reach the uk?? you need 2 grace our shores with your presence...i lived in nz 4 over 2 years...a chill out period in my life...something that was much needed...livin with maori and sa fellas who were heavily in2 blazin the day away 2 dub and shockin out 2 d'n'b at nite salmonella dub n ur solo stuff was always blarin from our speakers...come uk man rinse it out!
Yo grimeytimez thanx for tha support dude. Im not looking at coming to tha UK sory, ive done 11 tours in my time with sal dub and shapeshifter so i know wot is needed to make it over. I need radio, media and tv support before making tha trip over, so until then you gona have to come back to aotearoa dude, that aint so bad thou huh.../ bless!
ah safe brother just another excuse 2 come bk 2 the land of the long white cloud then mate!! but serious big ups 2 u dude ur music is so damn inspirational...nz made a huge lasting impression on me and the kiwi sounds r just heavy man! seeing u @ groove in the park and shapeshifter @ st james (RIP!) were massive highlights...cheers 4 takin time 2 reply...kia ora brada!
With all due repsect T, the 'kiddies' arent going to look at this and think 'Yay! Self-determination & positive accomplishment!' Kids copy & interpret what they see, not what they dont see & to an extent, not what they hear either. But whatever dude - its your video, you can do what you like, just dont think that negative glorification wont come out of something just because its 'art'. Im not trying to be a bitch, i just call it how i see it. Peace.
I have to disagree with you on this becoz ive seen it work.I speak in schools and conect with kids who were in a similar path as myself, gangs,drugs,crime.By doin something that they can relate to and resonate with, and by showing them how i broke free from tha opression to become a strong independent artsist, that has inspired and uplifted many kids.Wot do you do to help....? you obviously havnt done your research about me, and yes i think you are being a 'bitch', i just call it how i see it.
1st of all know that im not attacking you personally or generalizing about everything you've ever done as an artist, im just ascertaining what I have interpreted from this particular video. Art is an interpretation of the viewer and sumtimes that doesnt always correlate with the intentions of the artist - so who takes the responsibility? The artist or the naive kid? You may have seen this sort of thing work, but i've seen it fail aswell. You are a product of the media, whether you like it or not
Good song though and for what its worth, I like you.
Oh and i never made any comment about your tatts btw. I actually think they look awesome. But yes, its easy to generalize about people based on image. But whatever...good artists are the ones who spark all the controversy I suppose.
aww opinions opinions opinions! ... lucky this is about tiki huh ... and not about you metalrose001. checking out your profile page i shudder to think what any music vid you would make would be like - let alone music agggghhhh! for what its worth, i don't like you. churr
Hey MetalRose001, Just becoz im wearing colors that doesnt make me a gangsta.Just becoz im tattooed that doesnt make me a criminal.Unfortunately u r not receiving tha true message within this track+video which is writen at tha end.I am frustrated with tha government,police,media,tv and music industry 4 controlling and manipulating tha truth.My bandana represents being a guerila, a freedom fighter who is fighting 4 his independence and liberation.I wish u all tha best my friend.Mauri ora!
Oh come off it. We all know what bandanas are commonly & most likely known to represent - to wear one bears the risk of associating oneself to that image in the conscious of society. However, i never thought you a 'gangsta' by wearing one, I just personally thought it didnt look right...especially considering the stigma behind its common use in NZ. I dont think its a good look for the kids either. As a recognized entertainer you should be aware of potential confusion in the images you present.
sho0ot tiki!!! oh i wanted to know by the way why the remix part of this song isnt on your cd?? i thought the remix part was the best part of the song haha! oh yeah im from christchurch aswell! yaya! SHIRLEY BOYS MAKE SOME NOISE! your the maan tiki
dnb mix at the end is heavy! always been a fan of you and salmonella dub, enjoyin ur new shit esp always on my mind, the girlfriend loves that track and sings along whenever it comes up on C4. keep the tunes coming!
this song has been out for while but has to be my favorite tiki songs awesome, "I'll MURDER YOU"

Tiki...Dont even give the haters recognition... instead focus on the ppl who give you positive praise...i dont see why you waste your thoughts on them...to me they are ignorant and ignorance is bliss! It upsets me to see an intelligent creative mind like yours picked at with negative unnecessary comments. Your music heals...your music inspires...your music has hope and it touches all walks of life...you truely are mean maori mean!!!

Nice work tiki!! I remember you from braspadeek (sp??) days, your creativity has inspired many people in the music industry, keep it up.
This is a great song, i particularly like the sick low riding beats at the end. Do you, or did you ever just think about producing straight hard driving DnB?? under another alias. probably you know there are a small portion of your fans out there that would like to hear some more production from you in this field,. cheers bruv.kiaora

Dont confuse an argument with a personal attack, bro. Im argumentative yes, but im not being a bitch. If having a diverse opinion to you qualifies me to being catergorized as such then i think thats just a largely childish remark on your part.
MetalRose001 3 years ago
I do take it as a personal attack as i put everything into my art, i care about it with passion, and to have an arm chair critic who hasnt done anything remotely artistic, and who sits behind his computer and attacks me for not being responsible, and all this from some one who doesnt do a dam thing to help our tamariki.... now thats just sad.I realy do wish you all tha best in your search for tha truth and light.PEACE OUT.

You are fantastic and your music has gone from strength to strength since Salmonella Dub. I have followed your work for years now - and this is your best stuff yet. You are an artist and I look forward to more outstanding work in years to come. Peace to you.

With all due repsect T, the 'kiddies' arent going to look at this and think 'Yay! Self-determination & positive accomplishment!' Kids copy & interpret what they see, not what they dont see & to an extent, not what they hear either. But whatever dude - its your video, you can do what you like, just dont think that negative glorification wont come out of something just because its 'art'. Im not trying to be a bitch, i just call it how i see it. Peace.
MetalRose001 3 years ago
I have to disagree with you on this becoz ive seen it work.I speak in schools and conect with kids who were in a similar path as myself, gangs,drugs,crime.By doin something that they can relate to and resonate with, and by showing them how i broke free from tha opression to become a strong independent artsist, that has inspired and uplifted many kids.Wot do you do to help....? you obviously havnt done your research about me, and yes i think you are being a 'bitch', i just call it how i see it.
tikidub 3 years ago
1st of all know that im not attacking you personally or generalizing about everything you've ever done as an artist, im just ascertaining what I have interpreted from this particular video. Art is an interpretation of the viewer and sumtimes that doesnt always correlate with the intentions of the artist - so who takes the responsibility? The artist or the naive kid? You may have seen this sort of thing work, but i've seen it fail aswell. You are a product of the media, whether you like it or not

Oh and i never made any comment about your tatts btw. I actually think they look awesome. But yes, its easy to generalize about people based on image. But whatever...good artists are the ones who spark all the controversy I suppose.

MetalRose001 3 years ago
Hey MetalRose001, Just becoz im wearing colors that doesnt make me a gangsta.Just becoz im tattooed that doesnt make me a criminal.Unfortunately u r not receiving tha true message within this track+video which is writen at tha end.I am frustrated with tha government,police,media,tv and music industry 4 controlling and manipulating tha truth.My bandana represents being a guerila, a freedom fighter who is fighting 4 his independence and liberation.I wish u all tha best my friend.Mauri ora!

tikidub 3 years ago
Oh come off it. We all know what bandanas are commonly & most likely known to represent - to wear one bears the risk of associating oneself to that image in the conscious of society. However, i never thought you a 'gangsta' by wearing one, I just personally thought it didnt look right...especially considering the stigma behind its common use in NZ. I dont think its a good look for the kids either. As a recognized entertainer you should be aware of potential confusion in the images you present.
