Has, Lui and Tom make up 'The Home Brew Crew' straight out of Avondale Auckland New Zealand. Their music is made up of classic Jazz samples topped with witty sarcasm and cynical but comedic lyrics.
I’m stoked I found them. I can’t believe I didn’t find them earlier. The reason why I like them is simple. They sound good and they made me pay attention. I downloaded their ‘Taste Test’ EP sampler off of their website for $1. I would have paid more but I don’t have a job and I’ve got no money. But hey you can buy it too if you heed my most earnest recommendation…..right here http://homebrewcrew.co.nz/#/music
I’m listening to the 'Taste Test' sampler now. My favourite songs are ‘Blah Blah Blah’ and ‘Bad Bad Whiskey’. It’s easy breezy music with references to things that I relate to all the way through every song. They have a genuine down to earth no bullshit no frills approach to Hip Hop which gives them a refreshing realness.
They once played at ´The Big Day Out’ and opened for ‘RZA’ and were also nominated for the 2010 New Zealand Music Awards Critics Choice. They also have a slew of albums and releases available on their extremely entertaining website.

Also check out their NZ On Air funded video for 'Underneath The Shade' produced by the prodigious Chris Graham.
To sum it up these guys are the Shit and should be famous.
