Sharing the stage at Logan Campbell, is a legendary hip-hop artist of the same calibre, Twista.

Hailing from Chicago, Twista is famed for his own unique ‘double-time rap’, which won him a place in the Guiness Book of Records in 1992 for being the fastest rapper in the world, pronouncing 598 syllables in 55 seconds.

Twista also has an impressive discography, from his 2004 album KAMIKAZE, which topped the US Billboard 200 album chart and included the hit song ‘Slow Jamz’; ADRENALINE RUSH 2007 in 2007 featuring T-Pain and Pharrell and last year’s CROOK COUNTRY. A hugely in-demand rapper, Twista has also worked with Jay-Z, Kanye West and Lady Gaga.

Both immense talents in their own right and famed for their electric, full-energy live shows, having Busta Rhymes and Twista back-to-back on the same stage, guarantees Kiwi fans an unforgettable night of worldclass hip-hop. Do not sleep on this one!
