HIP HOP NEWS: M-Phazes Signs to Obese

Obese Records is very excited to announce M-Phazes as the newest addition to their roster. Born and raised in the Gold Coast of Australia and relatively isolated from Hip-Hop culture, M-Phazes has carved a place for himself among Australia's Hip-Hop elite and is undeniably responsible for putting Gold Coast Hip-Hop on the map.

Drawing inspiration from J Dilla, DJ Premier, Battlecat and Pete Rock, M-Phazes has forged an original sound that creates a modern fusion of soul and traditional boom-bap. With 9 years of production work leading to over 50 releases across the world, M-Phazes has become unstoppable since his first significant release on Supastition's Chain Letters  in 2005.

Steadily building a significant reputation in the underground of US Hip-Hop, M-Phazes has supplied beats for releases by CL Smooth, Royce Da 5' 9", Elzhi, Freeway, Sean Price, Nature, Wordsworth and Skyzoo. His contribution to Australian hip hop is undeniable, with production for artists like Bliss n Eso, Spit Syndicate, Pegz, Drapht and Phrase.
