Carlos Danger Presents: Irish Hash Mafia

Irish Hash Mafia is a first of its kind all-Ireland Hip Hop mixtape, produced and curated by Rory Sweeney, under the Hip-Hop production pseudonym, Carlos Danger.

To date, a collaborative project documenting the growing and diverse Hip Hop/Rap scene in Ireland has not existed. Being a central figure in the scene, Rory has pulled together some of the country's most exciting lyricists, creating I.H.M, a celebration of Irish rap from Belfast, to Mullingar, to Tallaght and beyond.

To mark this release, which has been 2 years in the making, the IHM MCs will be doing a one off show in The Button Factory on Sunday May 26th, where they will be performing the album start to finish. Support from MOONCUP, solo sets from Curtisy and legendary MC Tony Bontana, as well as special guests on the night.

A word from Carlos:

“Irish Hash Mafia mixtape is a love letter to the DIY sound and ethos of 90s Southern Hip Hop, as well as a time capsule of the left field DIY sounds being explored by the Irish underground. Myself and a lot of the artists here are starting to get caught up in the cogs of the music industry and I think its important to put out this mixtape as an archive of the free spirited sounds we’ve been exploring together over the past 2-3 years.

The mixtape, While primarily being southern trap, also explores other fringe sounds, such as experimental grime and abstract hip hop amongst others.

Heavily inspired and indebted to Tommy Wright iii, Princess Loko, Ten Wanted Men, Lil Noid, DJ Paul, Lo Key, Lil Yo, SpaceGhostPurpp, Lil Ugly Mane, Shawty Pimp, too many to even list here. Their groundbreaking art, attitude and disregard for the music industry is an endless inspiration and I would encourage everyone to dig deep into this beautiful sound. Youtube channels such as Psychopathicsavage and SouldjahFromTheNorth have done an incredible job archiving the tape only releases from the time.”
