The idea for the "Digital Undaground" mixtape series came up in November 2007. Wanja, host of the I still love H.E.R. radio show, had been supporting talented unsigned artists, who she often came across on myspace.com, ever since she first started her radio show and so she was the right person to ask when DJ Chuck was looking for a partner to make "Digital Undaground" reality.
"Digital Undaground" is a mix of different artists, who show their skillz over original beats. All these artists have been found on MySpace.com by the producers themselves.
If you ask them why they are doing this, they will tell you that to make a change in Hip Hop you need to get busy yourself, instead of complaining about its state! The purpose of thise mixtape series is giving talented, upcoming artists the exposure that the mainstream media wont give them, because they dont have big labels backing them up.
The primary goal was to have nothing but outstanding songs on "Digital Undaground", no half steppin allowed! And this has been done 100%.
Dj Chuck and Wanja are already keeping an ear out for the line up of Volume 6 and take your submissions at [email protected]
