Legends of The Dirty South Tour

Hey y'all! Hip-hop stars of the highest order are teaming up this August, bringing the Legends of The Dirty South Tour down under. The tour will feature, for the first time in Australia, Trina and Bubba Sparxxx along with Ying Yang Twins who are returning for their very first concert tour of the country. They will be blowing roofs off in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane.

For the last two decades, the southern part of the United States have had a strong hold on hip-hop music especially since Outkast and Goodie Mob hit the airwaves and paved way for an influx of artists out of Atlanta, New Orleans, Miami, Houston and Memphis. This southern hip hop, also known as the Dirty South, has become one of the strongest subgenre’s of hip hop with many of today’s rap superstars emerging from the region.

Trina

Dallas News, in a recent live review, described Trina as a rapper with "razor sharp lyricism and wordplay, her greatest attribute is her unabashed raunch, she pushes rap’s boundaries of race, gender and sexual orientation." Meanwhile, XXL Magazine tagged her as "the most consistent female rapper of all time". Breaking into prominence in 1998—after featuring on Trick Daddy's "Naan Nigga"—the much celebrated rapper has since been collecting accolades, listing her in Billboard's list of the "31 Female Rappers Who Changed Hip-Hop". Trina boasts a catalogue of numerous features, a dozen mix-tapes and five studio albums since 2000 ('Da Baddest B*tch', 'Diamond Princess', 'Glamorest Life', 'Still Da Baddest', 'Amazin'). With all these in mind, Australian fans are in for a treat as one of the true queens of hip hop makes her debut performances on our shores.

Ying Yang Twins

The Ying Yang Twins, consisting of rappers Kaine and D-Roc, broke into prominence in 2003 when they featured on Lil Jon’s club anthem 'Get Low'. Representing the crunk movement, they have released six studio albums which spawned a number of top 10 hit singles including 'Salt Shaker', 'What's Happnin', 'Shake', 'Wait (The Whisper Song)' and 'Badd', all of which, would become mainstays on dj playlists and in clubs worldwide. The Ying Yang Twins first toured Australia in 2013 on a promotional club tour and now bring their party anthems to Australia for their first ever concert tour down under.

Bubba Sparxxx

Bubba Sparxxx—best known for his hits 'Deliverance', 'Ugly' and the club anthem 'Ms. New Booty'—released his first three albums ('Dark Days, Bright Nights','Deliverance', 'The Charm') between 2001 and 2006, all of which made it to the top 10 in the USA. After a brief hiatus, he came back with releases in 2013 and 2014 ('Pain Management', 'Made on McCosh Mill Road') before inking a deal with hip hop superstar Yelawolf on his Slumerican imprint to release the 'Bubba Mathis EP'. In his first visit to Australia, fans can expect a show packed with non-stop hits and new material from one of southern hip hop's finest.
