After smashing onto the rap radar practically overnight in 2016, Tom Francis has been making big waves and fast. As the only independent artist in the Southern Hemisphere who has worked with names such as Snoop Dogg, Royce Da 5'9, Joyner Lucas, Dizzy Wright and many more. Tom is recognised for garnering the biggest rap collaborations as well as repping millions of album and single downloads.
Tom’s 2016 debut album Underestimated knocked Drake from his number spot on New Zealand ITunes. The certified platinum album held the number one spot on the NZ charts for over three weeks and features collabs with top industry names includ- ing Twista, Dizzy Wright, Joyner Lucas and On Cue.
In 2018, Tom produced his second album ‘The Follow Up’ in Los Angeles, California. The album is packed with names such as Royce Da 5’9, Tyler Thomas, OnCue, Jean Deaux, J.Tek and Spenda C. During the recording of that album Tom was invited to the private home of Hip Hop Royalty Snoop Dogg, sharing the studio, rhymes, beats and ideas; and culminating in a smash hit collaboration. This collaboration became the first New Zealand rap song to be exclusively featured on online hip hop mecca WorldStarHipHop.com.
With a musical style that’s a mix of hard-hitting beats, heavy basslines, quick-fire technical raps and slow acoustics, Tom’s diversity is amplified by his electric on- stage presence, rich lyrical content and down to earth persona. Tom’s music and live shows are packed with excitement and energy.
