Overview

Conversations surrounding the best artists on the international rap scene today inevitably include mention of Danny Brown. The Detroit-born rapper's incendiary performances and the berserk originality of his songs have shellshocked his fans and rap enthusiasts alike. Now, this innovative and ever-surprising artist returns to Australian shores for a teeny two-stop tour.

Brown made waves in 2010 with the release of his debut album The Hybrid, before gaining massive recognition a year later for his second album XXX. In 2013, he released his most recent album Old, which spawned the birth of three singles 'Dip', '25 Bucks' with Purity Ring and 'Smokin & Drinkin'. Brown hit our shores last year for an exclusive, sideshow-free Splendour in the Grass appearance, and hits Perth's Origin NYE 2014 and Sydney's Field Day 2015 on this visit.

Danny Brown will be playing at Brisbane’s The Hifi on the January 3 and The Corner Hotel, Melbourne January 4 and 5. Don't miss the mad and talented antics of this contemporary hip hop great.
