Der Erfolg von Hilltop Hoods in ihrem Heimatland Australien ist riesig: Zehn ARIA-Awards, sechs #1-Alben, drei Jahre in Folge in der Top drei der meistgestreamten Künstler auf Spotify, ausverkaufte Arena-Tourneen und über 60 Platinauszeichnungen sprechen für sich. Mit zwei neuen Songs aus dem anstehenden Album veröffentlichte die Band dieses Jahr ihre erste neue Musik seit 2018. Die Rap-Crew aus Adelaide hat längst eine globale Fanbase. So spielten sie bei ihrer letzten Weltour vor über 100.000 Zuschauer:innen in unzählige Länder und supporten 2019 Eminem in Australien und Neuseeland. Auch auf den Bühnen von renommierten Festivals wie Glastonbury, Splendour In The Grass, T In The Park, Oxygen, Openair Frauenfeld und Splash waren sie in den letzten Jahren zu Gast. Im Sommer 2023 kommen MC Pressure, MC Suffa and DJ Debris für fünf Konzete zurück nach Deutschland.
