NEW RELEASE: Rome Clientel "The Empire 2"


Fresh project. Enjoy.
At long last, I'm proud to share with you Rome Clientel's EP, The Empire 2: The Battlegrounds EP. Presented by the excellent folks at DJ Booth, this project features Rav P, Alias, Devon Wright, and Reks, with production coming from ATG, Kount Fif (of the Swashbucklers), Chaundon and the Gemstones, Parks, and Mr. Scott. The Battlegrounds represents the metaphorical battle an aspiring MC must wage to eventually carve his or her niche in an industry now flooded with rappers galore and not enough opportunities to shine and stand out.

Download: Nix - "The Nixtape" (@EmceeNix)


Born in Broken Hill, raised in North-West Sydney & currently resides in Canberra, Nix is an emcee from Australia that's been in love with the genre of Hip-Hop ever since he heard Ghostface Killah's open verse on "Bring The Ruckus". Dude hit us up with this mixtape and the simple fact that it was on Bancamp made it that much easier for me to want to check it out. So I hit play and right from jump, had me noddin' to the music. This cat is definitely trying to do something with this. I respect his hard work on trying to give listeners a really good product. I can vouch for this joint, pretty much from beginning to end. All you gotta do is hit play to find out.

With cover art by Jim Mahfood (Ziggy Marley, Clerks, Community, Felt, MF Grimm) and guest apperances from Percee P, Illmaculate, Losty, Tycotic, LHA and more!
