Said and Done

If you've been to a local hip hop gig in Sydney lately you would have more than likely come across one of the biggest up coming acts out of the Inner West, Jackie Onassis. Anyone who has seen this duo play live would agree that their beats, lyrics, stage presence and overall performance is amazing and one deserving of a packed out venue filled with fans bouncing along to their tunes. And in due time this will be the case. Today they released their first single, Said and Done from their debut album, January due out early 2013 which promises to join the ranks of other classic Inner West debuts, including The Grey Space and Towards The Light.  But for now check out their first single Said and Done.
