Synopsis

Album Description
Savage's debut US release, SAVAGE ISLAND, will offer more of the rhythmic hip-hop music that "Swing" introduced. Savage is a founding member of one New Zealand's most respected Hip Hop crews, the Deceptikonz. The act stormed to #2 on the New Zealand Top 10 with their debut album. Fame and acclaim followed; with this strong foundation in place it wasn't long before Savage's powerful voice found itself at the front of a solo album entitled MOONSHINE. MOONSHINE, produced by Platinum Atlanta based producer Sol Messiah (Young Jeezy, Chamillionaire, Nappy Rootz, Dead Prez) and multi Platinum producer AKON, was released to critical and commercial acclaim. An instant success in New Zealand and Australia, Savage's debut album racked up a #1 chart position and Platinum certification. The second single, "Moonshine feat. AKON," did the same. Soon following his debut success, a number of high profile US artists began soliciting remix requests from Savage for their releases, including AKON and David Banner. Savage seized a unique opportunity to bring his eclectic brand of hip hop to the States with the box office smash film, "Knocked Up." The placement of "Swing" in "Knocked Up" was a pivotal point in the breakthrough comedy and the director loved it so much he requested the song be used in the opening menu of the DVD.
