Rappers Tasman Keith, Flewnt, and Inkabee make their Vivid LIVE debut at the Sydney Opera House Utzon Room, where they will celebrate the hip-hop community and spit some of the hardest bars in town.

Tasman Keith

Tasman Keith, an award-winning rapper living in Sydney, was born to make music. Tasman was introduced to hip-hop at a young age by his father, Wire MC, an inventive rapper from the 1990s. Keith, who was raised in Bowraville on the New South Wales coast, began composing music, which led to his first EP, Mission Famous, released in 2018. Peter Garrett was impressed by Keith’s powerful, sharp poetry and asked him to collaborate with Midnight Oil on ‘First Nation’. Keith’s debut album, the Australian Music Prize-nominated A Colour Undone (2022), featured guests including Jessica Mauboy, Genesis Owusu, and Kwame, and he has collaborated with Holy Holy and JK-47. Keith, with his lively blend of indigenous culture and hip-hop, has established himself as one of the country’s most respected and interesting rappers.

Flewnt

Joshua Egginton, also known as Flewnt MC, is an award-winning Noongar Wongi rapper from Boorloo (called Perth), whose music is a source of strength and positivity in the Blak community. His block parties have become renowned celebrations of hip-hop and First Nations artists, and his activism has resulted in him mentoring at-risk youngsters in his neighborhood. Flewnt, one of the West Coast’s freshest and funkiest MCs, will make his Vivid LIVE debut.

Inkabee

Flewnt’s eldest son, Ethan Eggington, also known as Inkabee, wrote his first rap at the age of seven. By the age of ten, he had published his debut single, 2022’s ‘Beat the Odds’, a Blak anthem co-written with his father. In 2023, Inkabee released the breakout tracks ‘Saved By The Bell’ and ‘We Dat Good’, and his performance at SXSW Sydney wowed everyone, including Grammy-Award-winning sensation Chance The Rapper. He’s going to be huge.
