At a young age Dallas Woods developed the ability to find humour in unlikely places. Poverty, suicide, abuses of all kinds are common themes in his life. Its relentless exposure provides the mettle to cut-through his demons to apply words to the tsunami of feelings and thoughts. He writes with humility, knowledge and humour; it’s how he copes. These cutting lyrics and his quick flow brought Dallas instant attention. When Dallas released debut track “9 times out of 10” earlier this year it was instantly added to triple j,RAGE and earned him a pivotal performance slot at Splendour In the Grass.
A Noongar man raised in the East Kimberley Dallas is a quintessential underdog who dropped out of school at age 14 heading straight for the justice system. In 2007 the Indigenous Hip Hop Projects [IHHP] came through town and spotted this wayward kid’s cheeky knack for word play.
In 2009 Dallas Woods won E.K. Young Achiever Award at the age of 15. In 2016 he co-wrote the NIMA awarded track Break the Silence. In 2014 Dallas met and inspired Baker Boy to start rapping in language. The two are staunch friends and continue to write together.

About this track...
Old school hip-hop meets new. Hoodlum is hard hitting with strong lyrics, but in his’ inimitable style Dallas softens the blow with cheeky wordplay and a sweet hook. The hook adds a copacetic element whilst retaining the lyrical intensity giving you a comfortable place to sonically soak in his message.
