Jordan Oliver - All I Need (Single) (28/05/2012)
Ten years ago, the term ‘Australian Hip Hop’ was considered an oxymoron to most. Only recently has there been an insurgence in the popularity of this genre. Now, it seems that every two bit artist is trying to forge their way as the next big hip hop sensation. Many fall by the wayside, but some stand out from the crowd. This is the case for Jordan Oliver.
A new comer on the scene, Oliver’s second single ‘All I Need’ is rhythmically and lyrically successful. Injecting pop sensibilities into the track through the guest vocals of Libby Morell, the single doesn’t feel overdone or stale. Rather, its clean and crisp beats and interesting rhymes give the track a new and enjoyable twist. Whilst only a fledgling, Oliver has proved with this single that he isn’t going anywhere fast.
