'Together We Stand' Benefit Concert for Logan Fire Victims

By now you would have heard of the terrible tragedy that has occurred in Kingston/Slacks Creek (QLD) recently, resulting in a devastating loss of life in our community.  A number of organisations and individuals have united to host a huge fundraising effort in support of the LALE, MATAUAINA & TAUFA families affected by the Fire. This event will see a MASSIVE 7 Hours of Local and International Entertainers perform at Brisbane's Inner City Queen Street Mall. Urban Prophetz (including Phreaze) will be performing a set in support of the event, while organisers will be accepting donations throughout the event on behalf of the families to be presented shortly after. Click HERE for more information on the event and we hope to see you there emptying your pockets for the cause!

2007 Music Video with BYSA Boys!!

 During Phreaze's work at Blacktown Youth Services, she developed a small music project, where local year 8/9/10 students were introduced to basic audio engineering skills, songwriting/lyricism, music business, performance techniques, beatboxing, krump, bboying and more!  Every now and then, they managed to find the funding to also create a music video with some of these groups. This particular track was composed, written and recorded by the local young men featured in the video with a 3rd verse feature by Phreaze herself (written and recorded within 45 minutes we might add)! A massive first effort by the young men involved so if you enjoy the song and ever see them in your local hood, make sure you let them know it!

Hey Peeps,

Phreaze here - So if you've been keeping track of the new blog and updates, you'll notice that I'll be dropping a new Album in the comming months, and I'm having a bit of trouble comming up with a name for it so I'm reaching out to the fans for help!!

HOW TO ENTER
Have a listen to some of my verses through the Music Player, then comment on this blog post with YOUR idea for a name and your email address so I can contact you for your prize.

The winner will be chosen by myself, on Wednesday 31st August!

YOUR INSPIRATION
Some of the tracks on this Album were completed awhile ago and I've just never gotten around to releasing them publicly - so there really is just a mixture of topics, hence my dilemma! All of my verses however are Phreaze-style and speak from life experiences, so hopefully after listening to the songs, you'll have a pretty good idea about who I am and can come up with something that represents me well!

PRIZE PACK
 Winning Album Title includes:
- The very first 'Phreaze' CD Album off the press - Autographed!
- A 'Phreaze' T Shirt

Phreaze/Urban Prophetz Release "No Place Like Home" Video


"NO PLACE LIKE HOME" BY URBAN PROPHETZ FT SWIZZ DA HORI VIEWS HIT OVER 1500 WITHIN 10 DAYS ON YOUTUBE!

The "No Place Like Home" video is already being dubbed as one of the most "honest" and "hearty" visual depictions of a New Zealand Hip Hop Crew. Producers Rudge Hollis & Roxie Vuong capture the "heart" of New Zealand, and New Zealand Hip Hop, presenting a video that ultimately tugs at the... heartstrings of the many New Zealanders now living abroad.

Described as the most "fulfilling" item in their career by the Urban Prophetz, this long-awaited video is sure to go viral shortly, especially with the song featured on DJ SirVere’s recent Major Flavours 2011 release!

Be one of the first to check it out after it's April 2011 public release by visiting the following link: 

The video features the stomping grounds, friends and family of Urban Prophetz Members Phreaze, Likwid Eyece, Rawz & MC Rymez and also Swizz Da Hori from the Horified Crew. The Instrumental is by T Sharp/James Flamestar based in Sydney, Australia.

The single is also currently available on Itunes at the following link: http://itunes.apple.com/au​/album/call-of-duty/id4289​68278 along with the corresponding album "CALL OF DUTY".
