Not sure if we've been cooking or I'm just cooked
Either way keep your eyes peeled 👀
PSA No Connor Jones' were harmed in the process of this superimposition
I think we need to talk about how we got albums from Eminem, Tech N9ne, Common and Complete in one day and all of them are great, but the best one? The best one comes from the aussie.
The homegrown scene has come a long fkn way in the 16 or so years ive been observing. The production quality of Nothing To Show is INSANE and this man is RAPPING his heart out.
Thats the aussie GOAT. No debates anymore. 😤
If this was the tracklist, taking away all the attempts at poppy "recovery eminem" bs that drags down most of the latter half, if THIS was the album, it would have been up there with his first three
What a day of releases by Eminem, Tech N9ne & COMPLETE 🔥
Well... this got slept on 😅

Well, Its officially been a month since release today.
We didn't hit the 10k I'd have liked to hit but we got damn close!
In the first fortnight it had outperformed my last release and its the first project to tip me over the 1000 monthly listener count. I'd call that a success.
Just dropped a new music video with the homie Connor Jones 🎬

Name a more iconic duo 😤
(feat. Connor Jones)
Been a little quiet the last few days as I am down in NSW to shoot a music video and ya boy HATES using my phone to type.
Fat fingers and all that. Plus these things make people so unsociable and BORING 🤣
Be back tuesday with more actual content 😅
For those still tuning in, I added the lyrics to Final Cut to Genius
It might be a bit messy at the moment as they went straight from lyric sheet to the site but I'll be working on annotating over the coming weeks and removing any "/" and "(Bracketed)" stuff thats still around.
I write it this way to remember my own wordplay sometimes when we're doing deep cuts or long entendres 😅

He asked ya boy to feature in it!

Yoooooo
We just hit past the 1000 monthly listener mark for the first time EVER. 🔥
Not only that but this is the first time im seeing trajectory in countries other than my own which is DOPE! Especially seeing it spread in non-english majority places like Germany and Norway.
Dont sleep on this new album 😤 Link in bio
The crew over at Spotify seem to be giving Freak a big push this weekend
Methinks they're trialling it in extra release radars to see if other people agree and its worth playlisting.
Help us out by going and saving the song and throwing it into one of your playlists if you're feeling generous, That's one of the big things they look at, retention. 🥰

We clocked over 1200 streams Thursday-Saturday last week alone.
That's insane dude.
Which also means Final Cut has officially surpassed Uncut in streams by a few hundred already and its only week 2. 👀
Not only that but we seem to be breaking grounds overseas with this one too. USA on the exact same listener count as at home in Australia is NUTS!
Feeling the love. 🥰

Speaking of, Have you heard my new album yet?
⬇️⬇️ LISTEN NOW ⬇️⬇️
https://beacons.ai/braidzmc
First week streams are in and what can I say... We're only 400 off of topping my last album... Which took 6 years to get its numbers.
I say it every year I release but....
Is it actually finally, really, truly the Year of the Braidz?! 👀
⬇️⬇️ RUN IT UPPP ⬇️⬇️
https://beacons.ai/braidzmc
First time I've seen more than the number "1" next to international listeners.
Shoutouts to anybody bumping the album overseas, that's cool to see!
Norway on the list twice is impressive 👀
PEEP IT HERE IF YOU HAVEN'T: https://beacons.ai/braidzmc
Let's not make a complete habit out of it but getting jumped has been the best thing to happen to my career in years. Got my reach up 800%. Im getting support from almost all corners of the scene in the DM's. The album is streaming well for my standards...
This is better than when ive got into music beef's right before big drops. I am now 100% willing to cop another scratch on the forehead before each drop if this is how it's gonna go 😂
Anyways go stream the album 😤
Final Cut by Braidz
5 days deep. I'm feeling humbled.
This might be baby streams to some but to me it's on trajectory to be my most well received project yet. I've had around 10 calls of AOTY, some from random people and the statistics ain't slowing down yet.
Keep bumping it. Share it around to a friend and tell them to share it to one of their friends if they like it. Lets get this one popping!! 🥰

So you've had a weekend to digest it and I'm curious,
Whats everyones favourite song off of Final Cut and why?
Hit me!
🔥 NEW MUSIC ALERT 🔥
I am absolutely thrilled to announce the release of my long-awaited album, Final Cut! After half a decade of sleepless nights, countless rewrites and 4 "final" variations coupled with premature announcements and later, changes of mind, This project is the penultimate culmination of the best 12 songs I have ever wrote in my 32 years on this planet. ⌛ I hope the wait has been worth it.
Of course, I couldn't have done this without a few special people working behind the scenes, beginning with my long-time collaborator and friend Connor Jones whose exceptional talent in mixing, mastering, and "Siegeifying" (Adding magic) has brought "Final Cut" to life in ways I could only dream of. To Crossfade Productions for his incredible work on the art and Creative Rhythm for the idea/branding behind all the text design on this run of releases, combined of which serve as the perfect visual representation of the raw emotions and stories encapsulated within "Final Cut". Your creativity and artistic vision have added another layer of depth and beauty to this album. 🎨
To my dear Liz, whose unwavering support, love, and marketing genius has been a massive driving force behind actually finalizing and releasing the album, I cannot thank you enough for all the work you put in behind the scenes for both myself and Lost City Productions. From the countless hours spent spreadsheeting industry contacts to brainstorming ideas for the visual content we've meticulously crafted together over the past few months, your recent presence has been the driving force behind "Final Cut", and I am eternally grateful for your partnership. And to all of you, my incredible fans, who have stood by me with unwavering patience and support throughout this five-year scramble, words cannot express my gratitude. Your enthusiasm, encouragement, and unwavering belief in my music have fueled me every step of the way. ❤️
Now hit that link in my bio and enjoy the album!

Huge thanks to those who have reached out after hearing what happened Friday Night at my album launch, the support I've received from the whole scene is a bit overwhelming to be honest, The show went on and the night was succesful after the little hiccup there and I don't hold much animosity towards the guy who instigated it, He's young and impressionable and was manipulated by somebody giving him an opportunity and place to stay into making a Bad Decision (Pun Intended).
Much love to all the acts who continued to run the night smoothly for us while my partner in promoting/life and I got to the bottom of everything and figured out what the heck was going on and why it occurred, and big love to the team at Bad Decisions bar & Laundry Bar for letting the night go on smoothly despite some of the staff getting caught in the scuffle trying to pull the 5 blokes off of me.
I've got a little scratch on my head and some gravel rash on my palm but aside from that I'm all good.
Album drops Friday, LETS GO!
🔥 MELBOURNE & VICTORIA 🔥

Mr Magoo Listen to Mr Magoo by Braidz
I really didn't push the last single anywhere near as much as I should have, I guess it's because of this "Go Hard Or Go Home" mindset i've been stuck in for the last half decade.
I have a whole script and storyboard planned out for a video but I was quoted 6-10k to achieve the vision I wanted and because of this I guess I just got disheartened and have been reluctant/resistant to making any content at all instead. Like that was a better option or something... 😂
But I ain't about to sit on a song for 6 years that deserves to be way bigger than it currently is and let it just die out.
TLDR; Gonna shoot some short form content at the least for this over the coming weeks, til then RUN IT UPPPPPP
"Who's back? Luke Mac?! Braidz Too?! Ayy dude!"
First show since the virus fiasco shut the scene down and killed just about everybodies drive, whole new set to test out from the upcoming album! Super keen to show everybody what I've been banking in the stash!
Along for the ride we have fellow (space)ship-mate Martian & newcomers to the live circuit AP West & Rubiqcube!

I guess if I plan on releasing AOTY this year I need to organise getting some music videos together hey 😅
Link us your reels or tag a mate who's got mad camera skills!
Page is so dead that the video I posted of DMX singing Rudolph years ago didn't go viral this year for the first time 😅
Imma actually put some effort into music next year, maybe.
Its like choice paralysis at this point with 54 joints sitting there in the bank to record 🙃
New tune w/ the JERKSTORE. homies
Fun story about this one: I was sent an early version of it with an open verse, Now, My plan was to remix the track for BMixes 2 and surprise the boys, Well, Long story short now I'm on the original and I'm glad i didn't do the remix because the current mix 🔥
