"Restless troubled hip hop meets dramatic rock in a fusion that melds like lovers reunited... Sunshine Coast composer Cool Poindexter creates some classic rock angst with a riff that will have you clambering for your air guitar and leaping on the nearest bed...
Overlaid with the unique and turbulent voice of regional Victoria's MC MJD. He weaves a personal tale that a lot of us can relate to.
Stunning work. Well done guys." - Heidi March 2012
I purchased this beat along with a half a dozen Cool Poindexter beats. It is my favourite Cool P beat, and my equal favourite beat in the whole project. So powerful and dramatic, and that stunning guitar riff 2/3 through...
I first came across MC MJD while searching for local hip hop artists via Triple J unearthed. At that stage he had released a couple of demos that had been self produced, including 'Screens' which spent a few weeks at No. 1 on the hip hop charts. I loved his quirky sound, the undeniable feral factor and his humour.
I invited MC MJD to the project early January 2012, and couldn't have been happier when he picked this beat - known in its past life as 'The End'.
In a matter of weeks he had written and recorded his demo, and we captured it in the studio mid March.
I made a you-tube at the time, my first music video effort, using stock video.

I hope you love 'You are who you are' as much as we do.
You are who you are and there's not a thing wrong with that.
