Can we go back??

I miss the era when Prince wasn’t a symbol, when Michael Jackson was black and so was Peter Gabriels hair, when spandex, hairspray and make up was worn by just as many men than women, when we could still see Bono’s eyes, when we were told to “choose life” and “relax don’t do it”, when drums where loud and colours where even louder, those were the days when we were “walking on sunshine” when Madonna was a virgin……er. I’m talking about the 80’s, that era that could not have existed if not for the drum machine and the synthesizer, Disco was dead and so was punk but glam rock was still thriving as was heavy metal, ska, power ballads and the radio waves were peppered with one hit wonders, Duran Duran were kings and Culture Club were queens! Hip-hop was exciting and Breakdancing was a fad, HAA! If I could only listen to one era of music it would definitely be the 80’s, now where did I put my Rubics Cube?

Jobi One

At the mo’ I’m working with an Mc called Jobi One, you might’ve heard her on the ‘Straight from the art’ compilation, we’re putting some tracks together for her album which are sounding Freshhhh! Hard hitting street hip-hop and soulful beats are the vehicle for Jobi’s raw urban delivery , along with cuts done by Kid Dream and some other surprise guests, more details soon.

Unrelenting…

Well this is the title of my second solo project and I must say it’s coming along nicely!
It’s an upbeat party album with special appearances by Mistery (other half of Brethren), Hoodsta, Oakbridge from Pragmatics just to name a few. At the moment all tracks are recorded but unmixed, and the album is going through a culling stage to hopefully bring you a solid project, which will be released early 2006…
hopefully soon i’ll have some music up on here for you to check out!
but more news soon.

hey people what’s up?

it’s me! Claude Rodriguez AKA Wizdm The Knowledge Hunter,
but you can call me Wiz!
I am an emcee {rapper} and obsessed beat producer.
I’m also one half of the aussie hip-hop crew Brethren
with my main man Mistery.

Welcome to the site that is all things Wizdm,
whether it’s hip-hop, video games, writing rhymes, making beats or
devouring satay chicken, it’s all here.

At the moment I’m up to my elbows in a bunch of exciting projects;
from finishing my second solo album “UNRELENTING”….
to working on the next Brethren release.
from collaborating with other artists around the world…
to featuring on some cool hip-hop compilations.
from producing beats for some dope aussie MC’s…
to starting some top secret side projects!
Whatever I am up to I’ll endeavor to keep you posted
on the latest happenings in the world of the WIZ.

peace and love for now.
Wizdm
