Is ‘Freedom’ ChillinIT’s first shot at radio play?

ChillinIT is, without question, the most exciting new hip-hop artist in Australia, one of the most revered new rappers in the Southern Hemisphere and an emerging cult figure among his legion of dedicated fans, the 420 Family.

His independently released debut album “Women, Weed & Wordplay” has amassed over 35 million streams since its release in October 2018.

And his debut national tour, dubbed The Ashes, saw ChillinIT embark on his first-ever headline run over twenty sold-out dates, selling a remarkable 8000+ tickets across the country with virtually no mainstream media presence. Soon he will be the first Australian artist to appear on BBC 1’s Fire In The Booth with Charlie Sloth.

‘Freedom’, has been lifted from ChillinIT’s upcoming sophomore album ‘The Octagon’. Stay tuned for more details soon.

In the meantime, you can catch him performing at FOMO Festival.

Nicki Minaj and Rae Sremmurd Set for ‘FOMO’ Australian Festival Tour

Nicki Minaj and Rae Sremmurd are set to headline the massive 7-date FOMO Festival Tour which takes in all major capital cities across Australia and New Zealand by BBE early in the new year. Leading an all-star lineup including also Amine (replacing Lil Pump) and Mura Masa, FOMO is the first major summer festival of 2019 in Australia and promises to draw in massive festival crowds throughout with some shows already sold out. With further sideshows announced, major Hip-Hop festivals seem to be back in action down in Australia to stay after a couple of years in more recent times of relative absence.

This year’s FOMO festival builds off the back of a wildly successful festival run for FOMO previously, aided by a stellar line up of SZA, Post Malone, RL Grime, Kaytranada and Zhu amongst others back in early 2018. Their 2017 bill included Desiigner, Metro Boomin, GoldLink, Flosstradamus, JME (UK) while their first festival bill in 2016 had Skepta (UK), RL Grime, Boys Noize, Jamie xx and the award-winning Australian rapper Tkay Maidza taking to the stage. With both Nicki and Rae Sremmurd making their way to Australia this time, 2019 promises to be the biggest one yet.
