“We waited seven years for a gig this good, and we'd do it again … ‘If You Only Knew’, ‘High Fidelity’, ‘Thin Line’, and ‘Freedom’. Throw in a full band dance routine and close the night with ‘What’s Golden' and what you have is THE PERFECT GIG. No encore needed when you end on a high like that,there’s nowhere else to go.” – TIMEOUT
They gave us timeless tracks such as ‘Quality Control’, ‘What’s Golden’, ‘Day at The Races’ and ‘Thin Line’ featuring Nelly Furtado before they parted ways in 2007. Although the band was out of sight they were certainly not out of mind and their lore grew on soundtracks, and in video games. After a huge sold out tour in early 2014 this distinctive six-piece are back and showing us what Hip Hop should sound like.
Jurassic 5 have released their first song since the reunion, ‘The Way We Do It’. It features production from the late Heavy D and a sample of the White Stripes Get Behind Me Satan single ‘My Doorbell’.
The full 6-member tribe will be bringing the ‘J5’ party to New Zealand for a national tour, the show sold out last time so don’t miss this chance to see one of the world’s most loved hip hop groups!
