Flashback Friday: "Obesecity"
Flashback Friday: “Obesecity”
It’s 2003, and the boys and I are playing wannabe gangsters. I remember trying to impress girls by rapping Bone Thugs and Ice Cube. We were shooting hoops and playing basketball video games on the weekend and blaring Ludacris’ Roll Out and Growin’ Pains on repeat – we simply idolised American rap culture.
That was until Obesecity hit our stereos. Obesecity was an album put out by Obese Records…

Obese Records Store To Close After 21 Glorious Years
Sad news for the Australian hip-hop world broke last week as Tirren Staaf aka Pegz, founder of Obese Records, announced via Facebook that the Obese Record store would be closing its doors. The iconic record store has been around for 21 years and has been a one of the only places truly dedicated to Australian hip-hop culture.
“I am so thankful for the times we shared, we ruled the country for a…

CARJACK TOUR – THE COALITION CREW / PEGZ - DJ BONEZ - ILLY / BIAS B / SPIT SYNDICATE / SKRYPTCHA / RAINMAN
CARJACK TOUR – THE COALITION CREW / PEGZ - DJ BONEZ - ILLY / BIAS B / SPIT SYNDICATE / SKRYPTCHA / RAINMAN The Arena - Thur April 9 2009
Tonight’s exciting showcase of emerging Aussie hip hop from the swelling stables of Obese Records is a bitter sweet event given that it is shaping up as the last live show at The Arena, with R&B club Mystique claiming Friday and Saturday nights at the Brunswick St venue. A few new couches and some fancy bathroom sinks fail to add any significant gloss to what was once Brisbane’s premier live rock venue, and I’m not convinced we’ve seen the last from the dank old girl yet.
Although tonight’s master of ceremonies Rainman attempts to break the ice, young Sydney emcee Skryptcha struggles to distract the audience from their early drinks in launching his own E.P. Left To Write. He opens with the contemplative Runnin’ Away and works hard for a peep out of the unresponsive crowd, playing only a couple more tracks before leaving Rainman to attempt to rouse the crowd with handfuls of his Obese product.
A few more punters have trickled in to witness the introduction of Aria-nominated Sydney-siders Spit Syndicate who’s high-energy dual vocal attack blows the dust of the dance floor. Drawing from their 2008 release Towards the Light, I find the message and delivery of The Lost Boys on-song, with a fitting dedication to the graff’ers finding approval amongst the crowd.
Rainman’s glowing introduction pushes the significance of Bias-B’s place in Aussie hip hop history, but who better than the man himself to lay on a huge set full of big beats and Bigfoot’s bravado. Representing Hursty with Posca pens, B and Bigfoot positively seethe through a number of tracks stretching the length of his vast recording career. Lazy Grey is notably absent for Move On The Pavement leaving earlier tracks Ladies Man and Pervert from ‘03s In Bed With Bias to stand out.
Next up on the now-pumping Arena stage is the Obese Records’ main-man Pegz who is capably joined by one of the labels prominent producers DJ Bonez and emcee Illy for a set rich with tracks from his third album Burn City. 7 Days and 6 Nights closely follows Propaganda, with the soul-full production of Burn City shining through as they sacrifice a couple of songs to our local boys due to the midnight deadline.
As Rainman welcomes Yuin Huzami, Toxic Al and Nikk C to the stage, we’re introduced to the newly expanded line up of The Coalition Crew featuring members of Mr Laneous’s Family Yah band to fully realise their highly ambitious double album Known Unknowns. They open with Cheers and continue with the upbeat Backlash, which features Kel in full voice. Rainman finally gets his chance to rhyme, subbing in on Another Day In The Life before Yuin introduces the funky Free Enterprise as being inspired by Mark Bolan. Ramen stands up for Brainwashed as the midnight hour arrives and they venture back to their ‘05 favourite Make Beats to the audience’s delight. An attempted encore goes awry with Good Friday upon us, closing another chapter on the Arena’s long history in a rather unceremonious fashion. JAMES STAFFORD
