This Side Up are a Sligo trio that dropped an excellent album of West Coast (of Ireland) hip-hop in November.
‘Billy No Mates’ is an easy highlight from the LP, I said it “sounds like a Jurassic 5 throwback production” originally.
Watch the fun video by Gavin Fitzgerald of the track above.
This Side Up’s next gig is in the Grand Social in Dublin on Saturday.
Get their album on Bandcamp.
