    think there is a guy called Brad Strut who has a track on Nu-mark's Hands On which was pretty nice. might be worth a look

    If you're open to a bit of NZ Hip-Hop Scribe is well worth checking out.

    At "a festival in punchestown" 2006 there was a quality Australian emcee there. Can't remember his name but i'm sure if you could look at the line-ups he might be mentioned. Thing is - he was in one of the small tents so he mightn't even be mentioned anywhere... Talented guy though

    Look up Muph and Platonic and Koolism, both really good.
    I also have a compliation of other Ozzie rappers lying around and there are potentially some other good emcee on there...but i havent heard enough of them to be sure.

    But defo check out Koolism and Muph N Platonic.
