As I sat down with Tim Levinson, the artist known as Urthboy, I felt the anticipation of unearthing the layers that compose the vibrant tapestry of the music industry. The Managing Director of Elefant Traks and a pivotal figure in Australian Hip-Hop, Tim lays bare his artistic journey, from scribbling poetry in the Blue Mountains as a child, to co-founding music collective  The Herd. Our exchange traverses the resilience required to navigate post-pandemic challenges and the undying optimism for what lies ahead. Brace yourselves for an enlightening discourse on cultural influences, artistic evolution, and a stark glimpse into the commitment that fuels one's creative fire.As always, there is an unraveling of personal threads. We speak to the soul. I dissect the irony of loneliness amidst hyper-connectivity and the sanctity of human bonds solidified through live events. Tim articulates the sculpting influence of family ties and the quest for maintaining artistic integrity. Together, we reflect on the shifting landscapes of personal identity, parenthood, and how these multifaceted relationships mold an artist's life and work.Looking to the horizon, Tim and I wade into the future of an industry at the cusp of reinvention, where live music venues grapple with new societal patterns and how cultural tides can impact on the longevity of emerging artists. We wrap up our dialogue with musings on the essence of collaboration in art, the transformative impact of education on growth, and the aspirations to craft a legacy that echoes through mentorship and community enrichment.  Enjoy,Shan Follow UrthboyTHT gets by with a little help from these friends... (Intro) Music by Def Wish Cast.Song: ForeverAlbum: The Evolution Machinewww.defwishcast.com.auhttps://defwishcastofficial.bandcamp.com/INDOSOLE - Sustainable footwear Code: THT(15% discount shipping is WORLDWIDE and fast).Sandals made from recycled Tyres.

Aired 01/10/22 - This week on Backchat, you'll be first hearing about the halting of a promised arts hub in Marrickville as Sydney creatives complain of 'trojan horse' gentrification. We'll have exclusive commentary from Tim Levinson - aka Urthboy - about moves to suspend construction of the hub and the situation facing the arts community in inner Sydney. Next, we'll have a chat with NSW Senator for the Greens, David Shoebridge, about his party's recently announced policy to legalise marijuana nationwide. Finally, new research out of Western Sydney Uni suggests that over half of Western Sydney's agricultural land has been sold to development over the last decade. We'll be chatting to Awais Piracha, one of the authors of this research, about what this could mean for our food security now and into the future.    This episode of Backchat was produced by Timothy Nguyen, Eddy Diamond and Eamonn Snow.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week I chat to frontman of The Herd, co founder of Elefant Traks record label, manager and solo artist Urthboy (aka Tim Levinson) about A Tribe Called Quest’s ‘The Low End Theory’. We discuss how A Tribe Called Quest was political in a different way than other hip-hop artists of their era, how their sampling of jazz helped them cross generational lines and how your ability to appreciate contemporary music falters as you get older. Tim opens up about how the album educated him about issues not being discussed in school and why he has referenced and sampled elements of the album in his own music.

Tim Levinson is a songwriter and musician. Within the Australian hip-hop scene, he's better known by his stage name, Urthboy, under which he performs as a solo artist and as a member of the eight-piece band The Herd. I've watched and listened to his music closely for more than a decade, and I've interviewed Tim several times, including for my book Talking Smack. When he visited Brisbane on a Saturday in early June while touring for his latest album, The Past Beats Inside Me Like A Second Heartbeat, I met at his hotel room during the afternoon, where his band and manager were relaxing soon after arriving from a show on the Sunshine Coast the previous night. Our conversation touches on how his songwriting style has changed over the years to reflect a broader range of perspectives and emotions; the handful of times in his career where he has felt like he's truly nailed a song's execution; the members of the inner circle of people who he feels comfortable showing early drafts of his work to; why he decided to write a song about his mother for his newest album, and his father for his last album; and the creative breakthroughs that can emerge while writing lyrics alone at 3.00am. Tim Levinson, otherwise known as Urthboy, is an award-winning Australian hip-hop artist based in Sydney. His second solo album The Signal was hailed as ‘a classic’ by Rolling Stone, received numerous award nominations and was shortlisted in the 2007 Australian Music Prize. He is one of the main songwriters in eight-piece band The Herd, and also manages Elefant Traks, an independent record label which includes artists such as Hermitude and Horrorshow. Celebrating the government’s apology to the Stolen Generations in 2008, Urthboy worked with GetUp to re-imagine the song 'From Little Things Big Things Grow', at Paul Kelly’s personal request. The song helped raise over $100,000 for Indigenous run health and education programs. Urthboy has released five solo albums, the most recent of which is 2016's The Past Beats Inside Me Like A Second Heartbeat.� Show notes and links to what was discussed in this episode: http://penmanshippodcast.com/episode-28-tim-levinson-urthboy/ Tim Levinson on Twitter: @Urthboy Penmanship on Twitter: @PenmanshipAU penmanshippodcast.com

Down the Mountains into Marrickville, Tim Levinson - aka Urthboy - has gone from serving up $3.40 bags of fresh hip-hop to a national tour with Paul Kelly. He stands as one of the most interesting, intelligent and staunchly-independent figures in Australian music; the head honcho of Elefant Traks, a noted solo artist and one-eighth of legendary Sydney crew The Herd. In a rare extended interview, Urthy opens up his private universe and discusses nurturing his love of hip-hop, branching out on his own and how the Elefant in the room has been making noise recently. Urthboy's two new singles, "1100 Hours (The Comment Section)" and "765 Hours (W.A.R.)" are out now.
