After making his debut appearance on Earl Sweatshirt’s first record, Staples
went to work on his own material eventually producing four acclaimed mixtapes.
With his first album, Summer ’06 now firmly under his belt, the progressive
hip-hop extraordinaire returned harder than ever with his eagerly anticipated
2017 album, Big Fish Theory. A slew of top-tier artists feature on the record
including Kendrick Lamar, Ty Dollar Sign and A$AP Rocky.
From start to finish, Staples pulls together the world of dance and electronic
to produce a politically charged soundboard of angst, dystopian and passion.
The production is experimental and hard-hitting, packed with energy that is
only overshadowed by his versatility as an emcee. The seasoned artist is
respected as one of the most captivating voices in modern day hip-hop and the
love he receives in New Zealand testifies to his longevity as one of the
greats.
This is an opportunity to catch a hip-hop virtuoso live and in person this
summer.
