This week we have another 2 banging Artists and I am Pumped to drop these!!
The first Rapper we have is the one and only Godvillain he is truly a villain on the mic leaving a beat left burning in his wake.
Born and raised in Tweed Head, but now rapping out of Cairns.
Godvillain my be out of Tweed heads but he is definitely “Turning Heads” with his melodious tone, Clever patterns and variation of flows and bars which he skillfully applies to any beat thrown at him.
I see Godvillain making a name for himself in the scene as his SoundCloud is full of Bars, Inspiration and he truly is a high energy full clip of bars rapper.
Make sure you jump on his Soundcloud and give his tracks a listen, I guarantee you will find a flock of bangers.

Enough from me here is the Interview.
Why the name Godvillain?
Godvillain is a fairly new name. I was doing music before under a different name for years and I stepped back and had to reassess myself as an artist. I fell on Godvillain and I felt it suited my trial and tribulations that I’ve gone through as a person.
Where did you Grow up?
I grew up in Cairns, Far North Queensland. But I was originally born in Tweed Heads, New South Wales. I moved from Tweed Heads with my mum to Cairns when I was about 7 years old and I’ve been there ever since.
How long have you been Rapping for?
I wrote my first rap in Year 7 which was in 2009. But it wasn’t until 2011 in Year 9 I wrote my first serious rap if you can even call it serious haha.
Describe your Sound/Style?
Outside of the box but in your face. Technical with bits of melodies.
Do you have anyone that you consider your mentor? How has their help or advice shaped you?
Yes, his name is Fred Watson, he’s a guitarist and vocalist for a band called 3 Hour Flight and one of my best mates. He’s taught me so much over the years with stuff like recording, timing, tones and even just teaching me how to hold myself in a studio has shaped the way I am. If it wasn’t for him I would not be where I’m am today. I owe him my life.
Advice for the upcoming artist?
Stay level headed and focus on yourself. Put in the time and effort and things will happen and start to really pay off.

I think it was The Eminem Show.

Who do you think the best in Oz is right now?
