Mr Lif (USA)
Def Jux is touring Australia to coincide with the release of Mr Lif's new album Mo Mega, the long awaited followup to J Phantom and a continuation of his success with The Perceptionists.. Mo Mega sees US cult hiphop figure Mr Lif back with an arsenel of new rhymes shocasing not only his talent as an MC but also a poet and true life reporter. You only need look at your television or newspaper to see the inspirition behind this album, which is a random take on America that is simultaneously both personal and political.Soma artists make albums because they can, the great ones make albums because they have to. Mo Mega is the album Mr Lif had to make. One of hiphop's most intriguing characters, be there when the mega dreadlocked hyperintellectual with a hip hop saviour complex unleashes his compelling energy, sincerity, sharp flow and worldwide resonance live on stage. It will blow your mind!
Cage(USA)
Sharing the platform on this tour is Lif's label mate and Def Jux's most recent stellar signing, Cage aka Chris Palko. Cage's highly acclaimed LP Hell's Winter was 2 years in the making and is an album of immense detail and self-exploration. His story is one of the most intense, crazy, tortured and triumphant tales you'll ever hear due to a childhood watching his father shoot up heroin, to addiction, violence and mental institutions, through to the reality of having a child which ultimately inspired the final culmination and personal triumph of this album. Hell's Winter is a world of its own in which Cage explores his troubled childhood and adolescence. The result is both beautiful and painful, a true coming of age record. Allow Cage to tell his own tale, as his mesmerising artisticvision comes to life onstage.
Ripping the mics Downunder with Lif and Cage is SA Smash's main man: Metro
and Weatherman member Yak Ballz. Also along for the ride to spin some tunes
is DJ Krazy Glue.
Together Mr Lif and Cage will showcase the best of Def Jux's latest
offerings and is definitely not to be missed.
