[RECAP] PackFM Australian Tour (pt.1)

Posted 4 days, 2 hours, 1 minute ago by PackFM

Video Recap of PackFM’s performance in Adelaide, Australia @ Rhino Room

Oi! (Yes, they say that here.) After being in Australia for just about a week, I’ve finally answered a question that has plagued Americans for centuries; Kangaroo does not taste like chicken. I’ve also had the chance to answer the question that has been on the minds of Aussie Hip Hop fans for years; Yes, QN5 does get busy!

Going through the crazy ordeals with customs agents, visas, lost bags of merch, flat tires and more, was all well worth it to experience the love that I’ve been shown from Adelaide thus far. The crowd at the Rhino Room gave me some of the most energy I’ve seen in years and got me pumped up for the next couple of shows to come.

Come out and rock with me Feb. 3rd in Melbourne @ Laundry and Feb. 4th @ The Bald Faced Stag in Sydney and be a part of history as QN5 invades Australia for the first time!

See you there!

I Am Many – “Posers” | Director: I Am Many // Editor: Jimmy Swag // Videography: Gee Notes & Serringe

Posers suck. Unfortunately, they’re running RAMPANT in the world today. They’re everywhere you look. It’s gross. I Am Many is a true New York Original and he’s holding up a mirror for us all.

We here at QN5 have been big supporters of I Am Many since his days as a rogue teenage rhyme savant, roaming the streets of NYC with a boombox bumping Bjork and embarassing anyone who DARED step to him. Now he’s all grown up and he’s got a brand new album entitled Stength.In.Numbers. (S.I.N.) dropping on March 6, 2012. Here’s the first single and video for “Posers”, produced by Logik Proof and directed by the man himself.

[NEWS] PackFM Invades Australia Jan 29th - Feb 4th

PackFM Australian Tour Jan 29 – Feb 4

Aussie hiphop fans have been asking for a QN5 show in Oz for years. Many have sacrificed lunch money and saved up air fare to take the 26+ hour flight to the US just to see how QN5 gets down on stage. Despite all of this, promoters have continually overlooked CunninLynguists, PackFM, Tonedeff and the rest of the camp when booking Australian tours and festivals. So once again, we’ve taken matters into our own hands, and we’re bringing out the big guns.

QN5 Music is proud to announce that we will be sending our very own “Human Highlight Reel”, PackFM down under to give the people exactly what they want! If you’ve never seen a QN5 show, then PackFM is the perfect introduction. Booking and promoting shows ourselves from 10,000 miles away with a 15 hour time difference isnt easy, but we have always been and always will be dedicated to going above and beyond for our fans. This is our way of saying “Thank You!” to all of our Aussie supporters

So how will all of this hard work pay off? You, the fans have to help spread the word and bring all of your friends to see what is arguably the best live show in hip-hop today! So if you want to see more QN5 artists in Australia, now is your chance to show and prove to promoters that there is a demand!

Sunday, Jan. 29th – Adelaide, SA @ Rhino Room [FACEBOOK RSVP]
Friday, Feb. 3rd -Melbourne, VIC @ Laundry Bar [FACEBOOK RSVP]
Saturday, Feb 4th – Sydney, NSW @ The Wall (Bald Faced Stag) [FACEBOOK RSVP]

Atlanta’s Annual Kentucky vs Louisville Game Watch Party [Shot by Deacon The Villain]

Posted 3 weeks, 5 days, 9 hours, 36 minutes ago by Deacon The Villain

If you didn’t know, Natti & I are huge UK fans. Each year former Kentucky residents that currently reside in Atlanta come together and enjoy the rivalry between University of Kentucky & University of Louisville.

Since this year they were both ranked within the Top 5 teams in the nation (#3 and #4 at the time of the game), I decided to take my camera to capture the “KY” love for my homey Rob Jackson (one of the event organizers).

I know that 99% of you reading this are not from Kentucky, but sorry… we love KY. Natti had tickets to the actual game IN Kentucky, but he still hipped me to the right-on-time “Louisville Doesn’t Exist” Hoodies the day before the game.

Notable appearances:

00:12 & 01:12 – Soul Akoben (of Crop Circle) – Recently sang the hook on NWL’s “Rip The Guts”
00:20 & 01:07 – KY Finis – Recently spotlighted by CunninLynguists
00:55 & 01:19 – 01:35 – Rob Jackson – Recently featured on “Believe” by CunninLynguists for HopeMob’s Kickstarter Campaign. Also featured on “Take Me Back” from QN5 Music’s Asterisk: Three

For that 1% of yall that’s from KY, we might need you to make a road trip next year!
