“The Animators are an exciting new force in Irish Hip Hop”
Nadine O’Regan, RTE 1’s ‘The Works’
“The Animators are that rare mythical beast…a great Irish hip-hop act.
Some of their stuff like “How Does it Feel” brings me back to classics like LL Cool J’s “Around the Way Girl”, while “Marvellous” shows how much fun hip hop can be. A class act all round.”
Ruairi Carroll, Fm104
“I was delighted the segment we did with The Animators. The guys were entertaining, funny and related to our listeners. They performed brilliantly live in studio and sounded great. The feedback from listeners by text, Facebook, Twitter and email was one of the best we have seen on the show meaning they really engaged with our audience. We’d happily have them back on air”
Riyadh Khalaf – Producer of Plan B on Spin 1038
The Animators are the band that are gonna cross over and give Irish hip hop the respectable attention it deserves, Truss!
Tom Banning – Audio Sunshine RTÉ 2FM, RTÉ Pulse
“The Animators are a collective of emcee’s, singers and producers who have combined as an interchangeable group to mix their combined sounds and vocal talents. From Soulfully vocalled sounds to the beastly phonetic and lyrical verses. Top production, and musical input from all members has made these guys as diverse and relevant to any sonic demographic. Whether soulful, radio friendly, breezy HipHop or sub-level gritty attacking style ; The Animators are as at home on the national airwaves as they are tearing up an underground club”
Peter ‘Lop3z’ Kelly – HipHop 32
“Finaly, the sun has come from behind the cloud’s of doom and gloom. A well needed breath of fresh air. Hip Hop on a sunny day. The Animator’s represent what Hip Hop was originaly about…having fun.
DJ Laz-E -Plastic Attack RTÉ 2XM
“The Animators – Ireland’s answer to Jurassic 5,but with more nudity. Fun and exciting,these guys are rapidly taking over the entertainment side of Hip Hop,with catchy lyrics,party vibes,and feel good beats. They have it all,one of them even owns a chipper,see,they really do have it all!”
