E.E.S., Wagga Wagga's original hip-hop crew, is a duo comprised of MC Kris-Bo and MC Shelly.H. The boys are of Aboriginal and New Zealand heritage respectively. A lot has changed in the E.E.S. camp since they first started. Over the last 4 years they have been refining their beat making skills and rhyming style and continue to wow crowds at local pubs and clubs with a fresh, light hearted approach to hip-hop. The guys never fail to captivate crowds with their energetic stage presence, funky beats and clever rhymes.
E.E.S. first seriously started getting into hip-hop in 2004, but it wasn’t until 2005 when Kris moved back to Wagga Wagga that things started moving fast. After rocking a few pubs the boys realised they can't be that bad, so this year they decided to enter TripleJUnearthed.com and to their surprise, won the first unearthed.com competition! As a result the boys rocked the Strikeback festival in Newcastle and funky, toe tapping track "Rhythm and Rhyme" received some nice rotation on the Triple J airwaves.
The boys have received some great feedback from TripleJUnearthed.com:
"I came across these guys about 4 months ago. This track hooked me in. I like the organic feel of the track and the delivery is spot on" - Richard Kingsmill, Triple J Music Director
"These guys are the real deal. Seriously smooth hip hop flow. Highly recommended." - Chris Scaddan, Triple J Program Director
The main focus of the duo right now is the completion of their debut album titled “Eric > You” set to be completed late November 2006.
The road ahead looks bright for E.E.S., having played along side Sydney Hip-Hop heavyweights Blissneso, Hyjak n Torcha, Phrase & DJ Flagrant, The Winnie Coopers, TZU, The Sleepy Jackson, Wolf and Cub and more, certainly a step in the right direction to spreading the love that is Australian Hip-Hop. |
