USUAL SUSPECTS – HIRE LEARNING

If Santa doesn't come thru for you this December don't fret because positive rap duo Usual Suspects are giving you their long awaited debut album for Christmas! An official thanks to fans, this release is the Usual Suspects practicing what they preach.

From ironic glee to geek faced braggadocio, Hire Learning is a show case of Saia and Sam’s maturity in music and mind (and spirit). Their trade mark sense of humour and quirk-hop beats remain intact but the music has developed beyond punch lines to include social commentary and a broader palette of ideas and experiences all of which come through in the album’s 12 tracks.

With Saia at his beat-making-prime (as well as rapping up a storm) and Sam exploring both personal and political themes in song and spoken word, the album will give you something with substance to ponder over this holiday season while everyone else endures carols and Keith Richards .

The mainly self produced album also features guest production from Breakin Wreckwordz in-house producer Exile and rap collaborations with Ethical (Kidz in Space), Tyson Tyler, and Arme amongst others.

This Christmas, be grateful for musicians like these.

Working Class!

Wadupskies,

To add some sexually fantastic images to go with the sexually fantastic music of our debut album 'Hire Learning', the Usual Suspecto's are doing a photo shoot today with the expert eye of my man Jamie! The concept of the album booklet is gonna be a mock school prospectus, so with the Wreck boys also high schooling it up in their sunday best, eye-gasms are guaranteed. Oh the joy that Zac Effron and Vanessa Hudgens will have. We've been going to tanning salons and lifting some heavy weights, and doing heaps of karate kicks for this shoot particularly so try not to fall in love with us. Lastly, welcome to the Breakinwreckwordz School of Hire Learning!!!!

Remember Those Caarnts?

I ran into Bishop from Usual Suspects in the studio yesterday. He was telling me they've finished recording their album (remember that advertisement in the Still Fukkin Music mixtape inlay saying "Usual Suspects - Hire Learning" coming soon! Man how wrong i was about that). but it is dope that its fiiiinally finished. ive been flipping around some ideas with bish on the presentation too, its looking good. I know exile has a got a bit of backlog of albums to mix at the moment, so im not gonna say its coming soon again, but it should be out before the xmas. I'll drop you some more info as things proceed.
