A.B. Original

A.B. Original is the collaboration between [a2545628] (Album of the Year recipient at the National Indigenous Music Awards 2015) and [a225698], ARIA Award winning producer for [a205282], [a2685080], [a103357], [a3100115] and The [a225696] among others. A.B. Original was born when the two artists were invited to perform at triple j’s 40 year celebration, Beat The Drum, in January 2015. They produced a short but powerful set which also included the special performance of 'The Hunt’, a collaboration with [a474365] performed earlier on triple j’s live at the wireless. They write songs in the spirit of [a13726] and [a100745], while lyrically bringing attention to issues closer to home. Respectively coming from the Yorta Yorta and Ngarrindjeri tribes, Briggs and Trials are socially conscious outspoken Indigenous artists. They bring a new voice to Australian hip hop as A.B. Original.
