Hip Hop Night - Free Open Air - M.O.P.

tl_files/Blog_Pictures/WT12/MOP1small-560x372.jpg

The year 1993 changed the game and set a new level for all crews, clans and gangs around the globe. The formation of tribes like Wu Tang Clan, Boot Camp Clik and of course The Mash Out Posse had a major impact in the music world, but also in the freestyle sports, streetart and fashion scences.

Especially videos like „How About Some Hardcore“or „Wu Tang Clan Ain´t Nuthin´To Fuck With“, which featured their whole hood, instead of a single artist, were intimitading and attractive at the same time to headz around the globe. No wonder that even in the Austrian microcosmos 1993 saw the foundation of two little families called Texta and Ästhetiker.

 

In this memorable year M.O.P. appeared on the New York rap scene and dropped their first album  „2 tha Death“ including the street anthem „How About Some Hardcore“. A couple of years and releases later, in 2000 their fourth album „Warriorz“, produced by DJ Premier brought the final breakthrough with songs like „Ante Up“ and „Cold As Ice“.

To the Ä-Crew the M.O.P. show is the ulimate icing of the birthday cake, that we like to call the Vans Wängl Tängl 2012!

Monsters on Snow at the Transition Jam in Kufstien

With support from Ironlak, the Monsters on Snow arrived for the Transition Jam in Kufstien for an intensive Tag session that took over the entire area. In a four day mission, it left the location with a completely new look and new feel. The Monsters on Snow had time in Mayrhofen to put this timelapse together, before heading to Innsbruck for the first of the Austrian Spring events, the Shred Down Austrian Masters Halfpipe.

Hip Hop Night – Free Open Air - Ill mindz

tl_files/Blog_Pictures/WT12/Ill-Mindz-560x367.jpg

Def Ill and Digga Mindz teaming up means original streetrap at it´s ruffest and dirtiest. Digga is yet the only true representative of Corinth-I.A. aka the Dirty South of Austria. He has long made a name for himself as a producer and a rapper with this special flow of the region and a distinct love for the battle, diss and competition elements of Hip Hop.

If an MC is measured by tecnique, flow, style and meaning – then Def Ill has to be called the country´s best rapper. No wonder, that if you start to get on the mic at the age of 10, you are spitting perfect tripple-time-raps in your early twenties and are the worst enemy that anyone could ever have in a beef or battle.
