''Joel Turner and the Modern Day Poets'' is a collaborative studio album from Joel Turner and the Modern Day Poets. It was released on 1 November 2004, peaking at number 28 on the ARIA albums chart〔(Australian Charts Portal )〕 and number 2 on the AIR independent charts, additionally achieving platinum〔(ARIA Accreditations - 2005 Albums )〕 status. The album consists of twelve full songs and eight beatboxing skits. It is best described as hip-hop fused with a mixture of rock, pop, R&B, funk, soul and jazz. The music generally consists of Turner’s vocal percussion and guitar, with the Modern Day Poets (Turner’s brother and cousin) providing the rap. Many of the tracks pertain to real-life issues. Guest artists on the album include ''Australian Idol'' contestants Axle Whitehead and Rebekah LaVauney. Hence, the song "Scatbox" is a combination of Whitehead’s scatting and Turner's beatboxing, while LaVauney performs vocals on the track "Behind Bars", a song she wrote about a partner's incarceration. In addition, boxer Anthony Mundine is heard rapping on the album's second single "Knock U Out", and former CDB singer Gary Pinto provides backing vocals on the song "Lady". The album was well received by critics and spawned four successful singles. It was also nominated for Best Urban Release and Best Independent Release at the 2005 ARIA Awards.〔(2005: 19th Annual ARIA Awards )〕 ==Track listing== #"These Kids" (radio edit) Writers: J.
