Torrent description
Dhopec is an underground hip hop outfit from Newcastle.
Our music combines sharp conscious political lyricism, phat live kit laced beats and tight cuts.
The band was formed by Rhabdomancer and Doc Fruit in late 2003 and has been getting more resinously dope ever since. In late 2004 Kron Fusion joined the Dhopec massive and we played our first decent support, which was opening for the Herd for a live at the wireless gig. Dhopec, let it be known, have great respect for the Herd, not to mention Combat Wombat, as they -like us- are all about no nonsense, relevant hip hop which in many cases tells the corrupt, planet trashing corpo-political leadership to fuck off.
Dhopec have much respect for all those hip hop crews and other collectives speaking out against, and organising against blatant instances of bullshit which fucks people over, or fucks up the planet.
We don't have much time for fake crews, especially young aussie rappers who sing in an american accent about they hoes, they cash and they nine, and especially especially when generally they don't even got none of the three (see: '50 buck'). Women are not hoes, cash is not the meaning of life, and guns are for collective self defence, as an absolute last resort. Fortunately the fake gangsta caper is becoming less and less acceptable in the Australian hip hop landscape, and the various crews are forging a unique style which expresses the local scene.
