Despite NZ and Australia having so much influence, musically, from the US through out the Eighties and Nineties there were a ton of acts that were huge in the Antipodes that failed to get any attention stateside.
Sonia Dada spent 6 weeks at #2 then another month at #1 down here with this wee number. It failed to chart in the US though.
Is there a parallel that can be drawn to ageing rappers that come here for tours?
