Celph Titled + Brad Strut

Celph Titled (USA)
The over-the-top, bazooka wielding action star of hip hop, word master Celph Titled began his professional entrance into the rap game as a teenage lyricist and local production staple during the late 90's indie 12-inch vinyl boom.

After relocating to New York City, fresh out of high school, he began working as an in-house producer and A&R. All of Celph's early records were released on vinyl, including tracks from his original group, Equilibrium, and singles from career-long partner-in-rhyme, Apathy. He has been the leading member of two legendary crews, The Demigodz and Jedi Mind Tricks' Army of the Pharaohs collective and has become well known for his standout quotable-filled performances and hard-hitting East Coast-style production featured on the crews' respective blockbuster releases. Notably, in 2004 Celph featured on Australias own Terntable Jediz "All Out War EP" title track.

In 2005, he was invited to be an official part of the Fort Minor project, which was executive produced by Jay-Z, which lead to a nationwide tour with Fort Minor in 2006. Since then, Celph has released a unique compilation entitled, "The Gatalog"; a four-disc set which captured a long discography of Celph's guest appearances and freestyles, going all the way back to his early releases from 1998. This is still a top-seller to date! He subsequently worked with 'Diggin' In The Crates (D.I.T.C.)' multi-platinum producer, Buckwild, on his critically acclaimed 2010 debut solo album, "Nineteen Ninety Now".

Now embarking on a focused solo career with over ten years of industry know-how, respect, international touring and die hard loyal fans, the "Celph"-made independent pastor of punch lines sets out to solidify his stamp on the scene as a major factor once and for all. Celph is sure to knock out Aussie fans with newcomer, and leading emcee in his own right, Blacastan.

The promoters for the Celph Titled / Blacastan / Action Bronson / Brad Strut tour are sorry to announce that Action Bronson has pulled out of the upcoming Australian tour due to an urgent, unexpected family issue. He has promised to return in June 2012 to make it up to his Australian fans as you will see from his tweets earlier today in the image below

Celph Titled, Blacastan, Brad Strut and local supports in each city are still confirmed and going ahead as scheduled, with special extended sets at each show.

The promoters apologise for any inconvenience caused and are still looking forward to a big weekend!
