TZU (pronounced "Tee Zed Yoo") were an Australian hip hop group, formed in 1999 by Joelistics, Yeroc, Seed MC and Paso Bionic. They used instruments in live performances, giving their shows a rock-infused feeling. Duzy What joined in 2005. TZU released four studio albums, Position Correction (2004), Smiling at Strangers (2005), Computer Love (2008, which peaked in the ARIA Charts top 30) and Millions of Moments (2012), before disbanding in 2013.

“This is us, this is what these four people made and this is where we are. And let’s start a conversation. Undoubtedly there’ll be strong opinions, but fuck, it’s good. It’s a good thing to do. So let’s keep it TZU. That’s what it is.”
“We don’t want to isolate and push our fans away, we’d love it if they came with us, but we recognise that it’s hard to sort of continue that party vibe when you’re sort of doing dark, challenging, artistic music.”
Millions Of Moments pushes the envelope of Australian hip hop with its incredibly complex textures and variety and depth of lyrical content.
Their fourth record will be out in September.
