			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last year I helped Bangs, an up-and-coming rap artist, set up his own Wordpress site while working with him at the Artful Dodgers Studios, Gateway.</p>
<p>Bangs, through his Facebook promotion, the ineffable wonders of global buzz, and 1.1 million views on youtube, is in the right place at the right time, and surfing a wave of global interest that could go anywhere, or nowhere&#8230;<span id="more-241"></span></p>
<p>My guess is that the timeline goes something like this:</p>
<ul>
<li>Bangs uploads to youtube, and begins sharing via facebook</li>
<li>Bangs puts up his website at Gateway</li>
<li>Someone connected to the ABC gets the Facebook post</li>
<li>Hungy Beast tracks Bangs down to Gateway via the website</li>
<li>ABC&#8217;s Hungry Beast showed the clip while their credits played, and described his song as &#8220;refreshingly polite&#8221;.. their comment is at the very end of the episode at the <a title="Bangs plays over the end credits..." href="http://hungrybeast.abc.net.au/episodes/episode-6">Hungry Beast website</a>.</li>
<li>Bangs performs onstage with Snob Scrilla, and charms the right people</li>
<li>Nova gets interested (<a title="Nova interview" href="http://www.novafm.com.au/Video_BANGS-exclusive-interview_96143?site=Nova919">Nova video interview</a>)</li>
<li>Bangs is suddenly flying around the country doing gigs and interviews!</li>
</ul>
<p>Here&#8217;s hoping that he can make the most of it, best wishes, Bangs!</p>
<p>This is the track thats caused such a fuss:</p>
