Aussie hip-hop icons Hilltop Hoods have announced the imminent arrival of their first album in six years. Dubbed Fall From The Light, the rap trio's ninth studio LP is due to reach our ears on Friday, 1st August. The forthcoming record is packing 12 tracks, including 2025 lead single 'The Gift' ft. Marlon, recent fan-fave 'Don't Happy, Be Worry' and the Gold-certified 'Laced Up'. It was produced by the Hoods' long-time collaborator One Above (also Illy, Allday, KLP) with additional prod by Sesta and the group's own Suffa, and features bonus collabs from New Zealand group SIX60 and Aussie songstress Nyassa. We're told the ambitious LP was recorded across Adelaide, Darwin, Melbourne and New Zealand over six years, as the group prioritised quality over efficiency. 'We really took our time with this one,' Hilltop Hoods' MC Pressure comments. 'We put more years into it than any other of our albums because we wanted it to be our best work to date. Putting it out after so long feels more monumental and exciting than ever.' The LP will be available on Limited Edition 180-gram 2LP coloured vinyl across a range of spicy variants, and fans can pre-order 'em now, right here.

Australian hip hop group Hilltop Hoods make a huge comeback as they announce first new album in six years
Hilltop Hoods are making a huge comeback. The legendary Australian hip hop group have announced they will be releasing their first new album in six years. The Aussie rap stars shared the exciting news to social media on Wednesday, revealing Fall From The Light will be released on August 1. 'This album has been an exercise in patience. Six years is a long time between albums, but there's a good reason for that,' they wrote. They added the long wait allowed the group to produce some of the best work of their career. 'There was a lot happening, in the world and in our lives. But it turns out (from my perspective anyway), that time was the album's strength, not weakness,' they said. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. 'We've never been so thorough, so pedantic with an album before. The result is something that's been carefully crafted with an extreme attention to detail. 'It's an album we're really proud of, and a body of music we can't wait to share with everyone.' Many of their 198,000 followers took to the comment section to express their excitement. 'That's awesome. Hopefully a tour announcement soon,' one person wrote. 'This is so cool!!! Cannot wait boys!' a second added. Hilltop Hoods have release nine studio albums since forming in Adelaide in 1994. In 2019, the band revealed they simply couldn't afford to take their show overseas despite their massive success Down Under. Member Matt Lambert told The Daily Telegraph of their elaborate Australian stage age: 'What we put on here is so big now.' 'If we took the big show overseas we would have to sell all of our houses to be able to afford it,' he added. Lambert, also known as MC Suffa, added that the group's mainstream fame had taken them from outsiders to contenders. 'We definitely don't feel as much of an outsider as we used to,' he told the paper of being a rare Aussie hip hop act. 'We used to feel almost like some kind of novelty.' The group is made up of founding members MC Suffa (Lambert) and MC Pressure (Daniel Smith) and is backed up by DJ Debris (Barry Francis). Their prior studio album, 2014's Walking Under Stars, hit number one in Australia and was certified double platinum. In February 2019, the group supported Eminem on his Australian and New Zealand concert tour. The hip-hop group has won eight ARIA Awards and are regarded as Australia's most successful homegrown hip hop act.
