BKR offers up a new segment, meant exclusively to give underground artists a chance to share their music, views and more in a 'get-to-know' biographic recording.
We begin with Philly-based VITALITY (Synesthesia Records) as he shares his march-like delivery, emotion-rich word and topic choices and collaborations with crew members from across the globe. Even if his style isn't for you, this kind of community building and global support is what hiphop was founded on. Find out more by checking him out and listening to him speak on his work in BK's Underground Artist Showcase Vol. 1!

BeatKeep Radio: Interview with AUXAUDIO from Under The Crown crew
Friday Feb 02, 2018
Friday Feb 02, 2018
Interview with AUXAUDIO, producer, audio engineer and facilitator of UTC crew (Benny Browncoat, The Disciple, Afu-Ra, Context, IGOD). AUXAUDIO comes from Bernalillo to discuss his expertise, experiences, overcoming anxiety and being professional- finishing with his track 'Guitar Speaks' off his release 'Rebel Rouser' (https://auxaudio.bandcamp.com/album/rebel-rouser). Intermission music break at 33:15 has a BeatKeepers track, '380K' off the upcoming album, "MasterCool'.
"Under The Crown is as real as it gets. As independent DIY devotees to their craft, these HipHop missionaries skillfully combine the traditional elements of rapping, turntablism and beat-making with social understanding and genuine love to create a functional tool for community building, UTC.
To see UTC live is to be reminded of who UTC's track really are for: the listener. With Jurassic-5 era stage control, tightly managed beats and sharp lyrics assaulting the senses, it's clear that every aspect of their work has been tailored with complete selflessness. Like preparing a hand made gift, UTC gives personal attention to their fans, shows, production and community. If you see their set and your head doesn't nod on it's own, then HipHop isn't the right genre for you."
