"It's been years since there has been a crew - even an independent one - that has garnered the attention of both the record industry and fans alike." - 3D World Magazine (Rezo)
"Urban Prophetz Completely BLEW ME AWAY at the Project X Tour and then, again with the rest of the UPR members at the Outlawz Sydney Concert. I am not normally a "fan" as such, but I am now a fan of the Urban Prophetz!" - John Payne

Although based in Sydney (Australia) most of our artists actually originate from New Zealand and are regarded as some of the hardest workers in the local Independant music industry.
We have recently returned to Sydney from a SOLD OUT New Zealand Tour along with NZ supergroup "Smashproof" where footage is available from the YouTube link above.
We've also supported International acts such as BOYZ II MEN (USA), OUTLAWZ (USA), SAVAGE (NZ), 2FACE IDIBIA (AFRICA),SCRIBE (NZ) & PROJECT X (USA).
We are very active artists in the Australian industry (going on 5 solid years as Urban Prophetz, more as soloists) and especially on the elevation tip through our Free Hip Hop Workshops, MC Battle Events, Talent Competitions and so forth.
Our new music video titled "Wilin Out" is due for release in Australia & New Zealand this August/September and is a collaboration track featuring the majority of artists on the UPR roster.
We're also very proud to announce the return of our female Beatboxer "Hopey One" who ha just returned from Germany, holding the #3 Female Beatboxer title gained at the World Beatbox Championships hosted in Berlin and also features on the current “Vicks” ad playing on both New Zealand and Australian commercial TV at the moment.
More up to date photos etc are available through our bebo, myspace and facebook pages which are all accessible through our main site www.uprecordz.com .
So in short, our current show includes MC’s (male and female), RnB Vocalists, Beatboxers, DJ and Krump, and possibly a few extra surprises depending on which of our artists are available for particular events. For larger events, we endeavour to include the whole UPR crew to ensure we include as many elements of Hip Hop as possible for the enjoyment of your audiences!
