Bringing Down The Band - Invidious

Bringing Down The Band

BRINGING DOWN THE BAND (est. 2009) is a Hip Hop music and culture amplifier, founded and curated by Sean Stuart (aka Lonegevity). Starting out as a Hip Hop-related music blog with multiple tastemakers from 2009-2016, with over 12k blog posts amplifying Hip Hop music and artists, we abandoned blogging and switched to YouTube music playlisting, news and deep dive videos, and launched a weekly Hip Hop culture podcast called the New Old Heads. The New Old Heads is still running strong a decade later from panelists Lonegevity, DJ Jay Diff (former BDTB writer), Maja 7th and J. Moore.

BDTB has actively supported and collaborated with many creators in the Hip Hop space, been very active in boosting the Indianapolis Hip Hop and beat scene, conducted multiple interviews with Hip Hop voices and artists, and continued to curate impactful and important Hip Hop media. Thanks for being a fan! 🏁
