Search - Mystro :: Diggi Down Under

The idea behind the concept album was really quite simple: to travel around Australia and NZ record with the finest producers, MC's and singers our Antipodean shores have to offer. Although he has featured on albums by Bliss N Eso, Phrase, Hilltop Hoods, P-Money and even the Blazin' series (Universal), `Diggi Down Unda' sees Mystro as the first international rapper to record an entire album exclusively with local artists. It's set for release in Australia and Europe, which will ultimately raise the profile of our homegrown talent overseas. `Diggi Down Unda' features stellar production from NZ's number one chart topping producer, P-Money (Scribe), as well as some of Australia's finest beat providers, Hilltops Hoods' Suffa and DJ Debris, Downsyde's Dazastah, DJ Bonez (Hyjak N Torcha), Mr Zux and wait for it, Phrase! Mystro isn't the only one to be delivering lyrical bombs over these incredibly versatile beats. He's joined by a line-up which reads as a virtual who's who of Australian Hip Hop; the Hilltop Hoods, Anecdote, Phrase, Macromantics, Maya Jupiter, Layla, A-Love and our first neo-soul artist, Daniel Merriweather (Mark Ronson, Phrase). The posse cut "State Cypha" is a four-state collaboration featuring Hyjak (NSW), Drapht (WA), Muph (VIC) and Robby Balboa (QLD) and is pure fiiyaah! The limited edition vinyl sampler features the first single "Who You Gonna Blame?" a guaranteed anthem produced by P-Money, which sees Mystro in trouble for lyrically blowing the roof off a venue-again! If you've ever witnessed Mystro on stage you know he is an outstanding host with pure titanium lungs, and he has an inimitable stage presence and energy that few have ever come close to matching. With it's horn stabs and melodic keys, "Keep it Moving" is a summery Dazastah beat, which sees Mystro in story-telling mode, recounting his love for hip hop and what keeps him inspired on a day to day basis. For those that love a legendary posse cut, Mystro pulls together 4 of our finest MCs to collab over an infectious bass-heavy Mr Zux beat on "State Cypha", a tune which is going to have heads running to hit rewind!
