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! 🏁

Wrapped up curating the Plaza stage with my man DJ MetroGnome at CHREECE Hip Hop Fest this last Saturday. That's all 9 Chreece fests we've handled the DJ and Producer stage to amplify the vibes and jams.

This year we brought the super talented ‪@hoss.swet1987‬ from Barcelona and my guy Slot-A based in Chicago.

‪@NewOldHeads‬ also judged the beat battle with 12 producers battling each other with Do-Re coming out on top! See you next year.

I'd argue we're being too polite to the "legends" adopting practices that are in direct opposition to the creative livelihoods of actual creators. This statement is absolute nonsense.
