New World Artists

 

In September 07 Elefant Traks released his debut LP, he has been hailed as one of the freshest and most vibrant voices in a new generation of Australian hiphop artists. His name is The Tongue and his phenomenal album Shock & Awe lives up to every ounce of hype he’s received to this date.

 

Projecting a youthful enthusiasm overflowing with confidence and acumen, The Tongue has created a penetrating highlight-filled hiphop album. To say he has a natural charisma is an understatement, and to explain his comprehension of flow and wordplay as adept is like saying Tiger Woods is good at golf. The Tongue is simply a natural – on record and on stage.

 

Working with names like Braintax, Dudley Perkins & Georgia Anne Muldrow (Stones Throw), Ozi Batla and Jane Tyrrell (The Herd) and Jai Pyne (Paper Scissors) Shock & Awe is a cohesive and ambitious record set to truly consolidate The Tongue as one of the forces to be reckoned with. If he’s capable of this at 22, imagine what the future holds.

 

The Tongue will be releasing his follow up album in September 2010 whihc features the new single, The Show.
