So David Dallas has gotta be one of the most hyped up and comers in the game right now. After achieving all that he could in NZ, he moved north to NY, inked a marketing deal with Duck Down and it's been a wrap ever since. He's a huge inspiration to us, as it shows what a cat from our side of the planet can achieve. He drops his latest album, 'The Rose Tint', totally free. And it's dope as fuck. Check what all the hype is about.
Y'all know we been fans of D-Dot since he was Con Psy. This is the latest video from 'The Rose Tint', which drops on May 11th. And it's a free album. Boss. Can't wait.
On some nerd shit, I've always been a huge fan of The Lord Of The Rings books, so the movies were crack to me. I genuinely am vibed as hell for The Hobbit, and Peter Jackson recently posted the first video blog as they begin shooting...
First up, my bad on the blog slackness. Life is fucking hectic lately, kinda juggling a few things and trying to find a balance. Anyway, here's Mr D. Dot Dallas with the visuals to his latest single, 'Caught In A Daze' with Freddie Gibbs, off his latest LP 'The Rose Tint', released in conjunction with Duck Down. Dope tune, cool video.
Ahhh hey bru. This is the greatest internet meme of all time. OF ALL TIME.
And now they've got their charity game on for the recent Christchurch earthquake. Which is super messed up by the way. HAARP. Look into it. And not the Muse album (as brilliant as that is).
While you're at it, check the stupid autotune tribute to the beached whale I did a couple years back. Duffer.
When I saw the email that David Dallas signed with Duck Down and is moving to the US, I was stoked. It proved that dudes from our side of the world can come to North America and make moves in Hip Hop. We're doing the exact same thing but on a smaller scale (for now), so this is hella inspiring. Check the vid after the jump...
I dunno why I haven't heard of this dude before. I did the old YouTube search and Vince has worked with the best of the best in NZ. His voice is immaculate; I'm still yet to check out his older material, but I stumbled across this great new video in my Facebook feed as my personal favourite of The Movement Fam Model Features to date, Shushila Takao, is featured prominently. She is ridiculous, on the real. Like how I picture the wifey. Amazing. Anyway, I'll stop drooling now...the song is brilliant, and the video is well shot. Check it out.
Oh yes. On the eve of the release of his third mixtape, Notion just dropped the second leak, a collabo with fellow members of The Movement Fam, Cee & Bekah, over Erykah Badu's 'Honey'.
Make sure you grab the leak, and then hit up www.NotionBaby.com on Friday 20th August at either midnight East Coast USA time or 2pm Melbourne, Australia time to cop the full mixtape! Featuring collabs with Whisper, New Zealand's KB, Detect and The Movement Fam crew (Tommy Gunnz, Bekah, Cee, Theory and Micnificent), and every song is a 9th Wonder beat, in tribute to one of the greatest producers of our time.
The gorgeous women of New Zealand just keep coming...
We're back again, this time with Miss Kendal McSorley, a stunning model and make up artist. I seriously think that Nelson must have something in the water to breed so many spectacular specimens...

P-Money is definitely on that next right now. Dude always seems to come different (pause) on his own shit, and his latest single, 'Falling Down', doesn't stray from that path. Featuring vocalist Milan Borich, who's an old rocker from NZ, the clip is fairly epic and P's acting is awesome. Peep game.
Oh we back! Our model grind has been a bit more vicious of late, as we gear up for the re-launch of TheMovementFam.com with a brand new layout, artist pages, and all that good stuff.
So as per how most of my model discoveries happen, I was trawling Facebook at work (it's kinda part of my job lol) and I stumbled upon one of the loveliest young ladies I've seen in a while, Miss Shushila Takao. I was pretty much immediately struck by her natural beauty, and the more photos I saw of her, the more this was confirmed. I think I developed a bit of a crush lol.
So, loyal TheMovementFam.com readers, it's my pleasure to present this young lady, who is well spoken, driven and extraordinarily smokin' (check her background). Y'all definitely gonna need to check out her websites...

Here's the final video from NZ MC PNC's (acronyms, son) latest album, Bazooka Kid, called 'Bazooka's Theme'. Dope video.
I gotta say, I slept on this one. Rookie Card was my joint, though, I've just been lazy. I'm on it.
I had to do it. Most of y'all have probably seen these, but they're absolute GOLD. I reckon I've seen 'Beached As' like 50 times and still find it hilarious. Shouts to the fam in Aotearoa.
