I THINK SHE READY
IGGY AZALEA whether you like it or not represents you 1st world white girls who are into rap. Suck it up. You can debate it all you want, but most of you who sat in your pretty bedrooms in white suburban areas listening to Tupac and Dre and who have never experienced 'the hood' and would probably fear for your life at a 'real hip hop' gig need to embrace Iggy. She is one of you.
And that's just my 5 cents.

MTV CRIBS – Lil Wayne
This is the most LOL MTV cribs you'll ever see. Fella is so high on the sizzuurrpp. My favourite part is when he goes on about his granite kitchen tops and his 'entertainment centre' - hilarity.

What’s in the OWL nest?
I try not to be too self indulgent on here and try to keep the 'all about me's' on my tumblr but you know, as that 80's broad once said, we are living in a material world and we all like to know what one another have been dropping cash on so this is my latest haul.
Those who follow me on all the platforms the internet provides will know that me, I, myself have joined the mother fucking gym. And you know what? I don't hate it. Those who have met me and know me in person will know that I am on the chubby side which is all fine and dandy but the next step from chubs is fat. And seeing that I am now 30 years of age, I can't put getting fit and healthy on hold for much longer. So yes, before I knew it, I was down Fitness First on a Saturday morning and signing my life away...or is it signing up? That's for you to decide. I have a bunch of kicks yet none to train in, funny that. So Nike sent me these LUNARECLIPSE bad boys. Oh my Gawd. Amazing. Seriously. It's like you have nothing on your feet and also, when you are unfit and you hit the gym hard, you are prone to shin splints which I am yet to suffer from and I recks these guys need a pat on the back for that. They look good too, almost too good for the gym...almost. I'm telling ya, I am a lot more tempted to slam that treadmill when I know I get to put these on. Big Nike swoosh tick from me!
Yes so I have tits. Huge ones actually. Whilst they have er...served me well, they have also been a major excuse used by myself for putting exercise on the back burner. 'It hurts when I run!' and it did BUT I actually have no excuse now. I go HAM on the treadmill and my boobies stay put. I love this bra! My only advice would be not to go the white route (thanks Nike for sending me this, I'm not hating) but yeah, sweat/fake tan/make up - yeah....you wanna go black or another dark colour. But still, white at least looks fresh AGAINST the fake tan yeah? I am in love with all my new workout gear, it certainly makes working out that much easier. Don't worry everyone I haven't gone boring, I just think I got to get off my ass. Saying that, I am blogging about a sports bra while my friend Alex is texting me to come down and drink beer and eat jerk chicken burgers in the city. I need a happy medium here people!
First I bought these because they were on special, now I buy them because they're fucking delicious. I have cut out most carbs from my diet...mainly just the white stuff (white potatoes/white bread/white pasta) but I do need something crunchy and carby in the mornings. So I do this thing where I put some kind of berries in a bowl (blueberries and blackberries are my favourite), put some yogurt on top and then crumble one of these over it, washed down with a triple shot, skim milk cappuccino. Low GI (apparently) and come in convenient little packs so you can pop them in your bag and take it to work. God this is a boring post.
Yes. Avocados. Aren't they just wonderful at the moment?
I've been on the nostalgia tip of late. Been going in on Fleetwood Mac, The Beatles and The Pharcyde. Yes quite the mix. I can't believe I have never downloaded this album before but it's been on repeat in my car/office/abode. Fuck they're cool.
I recently did some travel for work, and one of my favourite parts of flying is loading up on reading material at the airport. I copped the latest issue of Vanity Fair and was mighty impressed with the articles. There is a great one about how we are living in neutral and still parting like it's 1999 - I don't want to go too much into it because it inspired me to write something but yeah, it's good ok? And Lady GAGA, love her or hate her, she looks FIRE in this issue. If you hate her, then at least get it for Annie Leibovitz who shot it. It's really quite something.
Hmmmm, I might go bake some banana muffins now using the weed butter in the fridge to save what's left of my street cred after this post.

Immortal Technique tonight in Melbourne
And I didn't get tickets and it's sold out. I've tried to seduce him via twitter but no dice. My favourite rapper since way back when...but this will teach me to drag my heels with copping tickets. The man is a lyrical genius for real.

ILLY
After minutes when chatting with Illy you realize he is not your average member of the Australian hip hop world. He has relative and thought provoking things to say and while he is no stranger to the treats and parties that come with the world within he has become a solid player it is not what he is all about. As they say he is IN IT not OF IT.
I think that unlike many, Al (real name innit) is building his house on the rocks rather than the sand...what with four months away from finishing his law degree (!) and conducting himself in a manner which both earns him respect for his integrity as well as for being no stranger in getting loose.
He will be touring the country starting on the 20th Feb...it is totally worth checking it out. No Perth dates as yet...but the man tells me that dates are still to be announced. Before we hear more from fella, I wanna give him mad Owl props for his TripleJ Top 100 entry! Next time you're in Perthetic mate, Imma buy you a drink with an umbrella in it to celebrate.
NUMBER 29 ...
Is where I came on the Triple J hottest 100 this year with my song 'It Can Wait' which features OWL EYES. Ironically.
HIP HOP IN AUSTRALIA ...
Is on the up and up and is getting bigger each year. It's been exciting seeing the genre establish legitimacy within the Australian music scene over the last eight or so years, and I think it's only going to get bigger.
THE BIGGEST PROBLEM ...
With ketamine is its scarcity.
THE THING I AM MOST PROUD OF ...
My latest album THE CHASE (plug), the culmination of years and years of work to reach that standard musically and the fact that I stayed in school and will finish uni in 4 months. But most of all my family, in particular my mum, who is the strongest person I have ever met.
KANYE WEST ...
Is a genius. Anyone who thinks differently is entitled to their opinion, but we have fundamental differences in what defines an amazing pop artist.
I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND ...
People who hate something so much they are compelled to criticise so loudly but don't hate that thing enough to do anything about it.
I TAKE BIGGEST INSPIRATION FROM ...
My family, people who have supported me and people I admire. A chronic fear of failure has also been a good motivator, I found.
IT ALWAYS MAKES ME LAUGH ...
Thinking about the shit that has gone down on tour over the years.
IF I WASN'T DOING THIS ...
I would be a lawyer. Thank fucking God I'm doing this.
THE OBNOXIOUS OWL ...
Put me onto Mercyndols last time I was in Perth. Over the counter bender cures! Thanks babe

DOOM DAY
I once had sex to MF Doom for about 3 hours. So anyway, he is coming to Western Australia. YES! Cop your tickets for 70 bucks at Highs and Lows in Mount Lawley.
Bye!

360 – Aus Rapper
I got to know 360 through Social Networks. Hey! don't judge, it's how all the kids do it these days, plus I know nothing about the Australian hip hop scene, so thanks to Sixty's wit and ridiculousness on twitter I have become familiar. You can't doubt the man's talent...check out this GOT BEEF battle and tell me I'm wrong.
So read on a little chat I had with him, and hit him up! Ask him to sign your boobs, he'll love it.
WHENEVER I ... hear someone say they prefer smooth peanut butter over crunchy I wanna smack them in the mouth.
THE BIGGEST MISTAKE ... Australia made was taking Dr pepper out of most stores
FUCK ... like a rockstar
I WILL NEVER ... say never.. damn
BUT I WILL ALWAYS ... say never... fuck
IF I ... miss out on seeing Miike Snow live I will kill everyone
THE OBNOXIOUS OWL ... is a mad bitch and she will bash you and take your shoes
Or bash you with your shoes, Love Owl x
Peep the This Life interview I did with 360 here
