After connecting through Melbourne's small independent hip-hop scene in the late-'90s, N'fa and Peril began working on tracks together and quickly developed a winning chemistry. But it wasn't until they added Peril's brother Kemstar to the mix that things really began to take off.
In this episode, N'fa, Peril and Kem are dealt an early setback before regrouping and releasing the biggest single Australian hip-hop had ever seen. "Karma" combined a great beat, guitar solo, and lyrics ... and an unforgettable music video.
