Description:
Due to popular demand, ELEFANT TRAKS is pleased to announce the reissue of THE TONGUE's deleted debut EP 'Bad Education' repackaged alongside his long out of print 1st album 'Shock & Awe'!!

In 2006 it seemed like he came from nowhere. His debut EP "Bad Education" included just 4 songs 2 of which were put into high rotation on triple j. He is that kind of artist.

It"s September 2007 ELEFANT TRAKS revealed the debut LP from one of the freshest and most vibrant voices in a new generation of Australian hip hop artists. His name, THE TONGUE and his phenomenal album "Shock & Awe" lived up to every ounce of hype.

Projecting a youthful enthusiasm overflowing with confidence and acumen, The Tongue created a penetrating highlight-filled hip hop album. To say he has a natural charisma is an understatement, and to explain his comprehension of flow and wordplay as adept is like saying Tiger Woods is good at golf. The Tongue is simply a natural - on record and on stage.

Working with names like BRAINTAX, BERTIE BLACKMAN, DUDLEY PERKINS & GEORGIA ANNE-MULDROW (STONES THROW), OZI BATLA, JANE TYRRELL (THE HERD) and JAI PYNE (PAPER SCISSORS) "Shock & Awe" is a cohesive and ambitious record set to consolidate The Tongue as one of the forces to be reckoned with.

ELEVEN MAGAZINE "Australia has a new hip hop champion. Enter, The Tongue"
CERTIFIED SCRIBE "The Tongue has taken his place amongst the future of Australian Hip Hop. A candidate for album of the year. Brilliant".
