Description
EXTRAS: 2LP, Gatefold
Auckland hip hop act Home Brew successfully both transfixed and shocked parts of New Zealand.
Their classic debut album – perhaps the most anticipated and positively received local release of 2012 – has become synonymous with hip hop in Aotearoa and was followed by a long list of successful musical endeavours from the members – including the critically acclaimed and award-winning Avantdale Bowling Club, Team Dynamite and @peace.
It’s been over a decade since the release of Home Brew, an uncompromising, anti-establishment snapshot of honesty, self-reflection and disillusionment.
With that honesty, Tom Scott, Haz Beats and Lui Gumaka created the clearest picture of the 2010s zeitgeist yet – somehow blending hip hop with Trade Me, PAK'nSAVE, John Key and whatever drug ‘killed the dinosaurs’.
