PNC is one of today’s most talked about artists in Aotearoa Hip-Hop. Hailing from Palmerston North, PNC first gained underground notoriety with his unofficial single Day In The Life that topped the bFM charts. He followed that with appearances on various tracks from P-Money’s Magic City album. His refreshing style caught the attention of NZ Music’s elite and earned him a contract with Dirty Records.
He released his debut album Rookie Card in 2006, which was received with overwhelmingly positive reviews. His singles Just Roll and PN Whoa were top 20 chart hits, and Who Betta Than This was an underground smash. In 2007 he won Best Hip-Hop Album at the prestigious Vodafone New Zealand Music Awards.
PNWhoa! debuted in the Official New Zealand Top 40 Singles on 29 January 2007. It has been in the Top 40 Singles for 11 weeks with a highest position of #17. There are three songs by PNC in the Top 40 Singles.
