Antarctica by BAYANG (tha Bushranger)

BAYANG (tha Bushranger) shares his debut solo mixtape Antarctica, cementing the multi-hyphenate creative as a singular entity in the hip hop space bound by spiritually led ambition.

Musically rich with nods as wide as Corbin to Kerser, Antarctica posits BAYANG (tha Bushranger) as a skinhead with soul. Away from the perceived eshay surface, the mixtape’s depth sees him determined at all costs to share the marvel of the everyday, to fill an agnostically felt hole, as the rapper is committed to running amuck through genre. Mining the microcosm of cloud rap Antarctica is a flurry of plugg, drain and trap, eclectic in style and collaboration.

"For the first time in my life it feels like I'm writing love songs. Not just to my Flover and my friends, but to creation itself. A toast to life! This wasn't really a cohesive project that had a deliberate beginning and end - it's more of a loose collection of tracks I've done over time. Because of that it's come to represent a transitory period. For myself, I find it very special because of that. It’s still a bit left of centre, but I let myself have a bit of fun here making ones that maybe belong in the sun more than they do in the abandoned warehouse"

“These songs were definitely written as I was rediscovering my spiritual discipline, and they're definitely the outcomes of new perspectives on life in general. Of the urge to find beauty (and God?) in everything. I’m not just one note, I love being a vibekiller - but people contain a lot of complexity, a lot of different faces, and I wanna be true to that in my art. In a way it captures a process in my life that's been latent and in waiting for a long time. It's the spring after the long winter!” - BAYANG (tha Bushranger)
