The Hoods were brilliant as always, with the crowd joining in from the first ‘til last track. A stunning night, with amazing support from A.B. Original and Elsy Wameyo. And Cosby Sweater was the perfect way to close it out!

Hilltop Hoods Biography
The Hilltop Hoods are an Australian hip hop group, originating from Adelaide, South Australia. Their name comes from a part of Adelaide known by all the local B-Boys as the Hilltop, where the group comes from. One day, another local rapper, Flak, from the Cross Bred Mongrels said that's what they should call themselves, and the name stuck.
The group formed in the early 1990s when MCs Suffa and Pressure met at high school. When they later hooked up with DJ Debris through a mutual friend, the trio was complete. The group's name refers to the Hilltop commercial precinct of O'Halloran Hill, a southern surburb of Adelaide.
They were inspired by American hip hop artists such as KRS-One, Gang Starr and Pete Rock, which encouraged them to spread this style of music to Australia as well.
The Hilltop Hoods have released six successful recordings - Back Once Again (EP - 1997), A Matter of Time (LP - 1999), Left Foot, Right Foot (LP - 2001), The Calling (LP - 2003), The Hard Road (LP - 2006) and The Hard Road: Restrung (LP-2007). The Calling achieved gold status in Australia, and two tracks (The Nosebleed Section and Dumb Enough) received places in the Triple J Hottest 100, 2003, at 9th and 44th respectively. The Hard Road topped the Australian charts, a first for Australian Hip-Hop.
Aside from their own albums, they have featured on a number of highly respected compilation albums, including Obesecity and Culture of Kings Vol. 1 & 2, and have collaborated with most of the main players of the Australian hip hop scene including Koolism, Mass MC, Pegz, Muphin, Layla, Hyjak and Bonez.
They have played many large Australian music festivals, including the Big Day Out, Splendour in the Grass and Falls Festivals. They have received nominations for the Best Hip Hop Act in 2001 and 2002 at the 3D World Dance Music Awards, won the APRA award for best up-coming group as well as receiving number one positions in independent charts all around Australia.
