Poisonous Youth Mixtape - Mixed by DJ Dave Lad

OUT THIS WEEK!!


Keep checking back to our blog for updates and info on how to get a copy of Poisonous Youth's Debut Mixtape









http://www.myspace.com/poisonousyouth



2007 Gameface MC Battle champion Orakle, and former esteemed graffiti writer Prolifik are Poisonous Youth. Both also members of the Menace Records crew, they have been busy building up a solid fan base by performing around Christchurch since 2006. Born into near opposite walks of life within Christchurch city, their music is the voice of today’s youth. Disillusioned by the bright lights and glitter within the garden city they use their raw, in your face, underground style as a vehicle to express their views on: religion, drugs, depression, and the self destructive lifestyle of New Zealand's young people. They are currently writing and recording material for their debut street album, which is due out on Grymeworks in 2008. Stay tuned for their debut Mixtape available very soon.
