About
Hilltop Hoods’ fifth album is a testament to perseverance. By 2009 the Adelaide trio had established themselves as one of Australia’s premier hip-hop acts yet were still to receive commercial radio play, something that finally changed with the single “Chase That Feeling.” The song “Fifty in Five” was also the product of persistence—utilizing a sample from a 1960 song called “Twenty Ten,” which pondered what the world would be like in that year, MC Suffa spent three months writing the answer, penning lyrics that break down the events of 1960 to 2010. .
