How Canverse Was Pushed To Be Better

The next generation of Aussie artists are used to the digital realm being the dominant platform for their music. Logan Tilbury is releasing his self-titled EP Canverse in a "special limited edition hard copy" format for 15 bucks. Yep, CDs sound pretty much dead and buried.

Tilbury is all about moving forward — each step in his journey as a hip hop artist is a learning curve, and he's honest about the stumbles. "I found myself spitting rhymes at school during lunch in Year 11. At this stage I really sucked, [and I've] just been grinding to better myself since then," he explains. "When I find myself struggling with recording or writing I try to just better myself as an artist in other ways — from working on production, networking, getting merch designs, artwork, I am just always trying to keep moving forward. I don't think you can afford to be a stagnant artist," he muses. Canverse spans five years of writing and was recorded with Gully Chaps [Allday, Milwuakee Banks]. "I was trying to show my diversity on the EP: the songs really give listeners an insight in to what I'm about and I try to really get the message of being yourself across, not getting sucked in to a lot of the bullshit that goes on around us.

"I'm always inspired… Seeing so many talented artists around me making dope stuff was a real push for me to keep upping my game."
