We were right there on the floor at the iconic Paper Tiger on November 7th for the Bridging the Music Minifest. Cracked Worlds magazine captured all the raw energy of an independent scene that is absolutely exploding in San Antonio.

The night gave us a powerful mix of voices. We saw Chicago emcee J. West, who brings sharp, biographical lyrics and a determined spirit to every track. We felt the inspirational energy of local twin brothers All Diligence, who are bringing Gospel hip-hop to the forefront. And of course, there was the party-ready attitude of WildBoiJimmy and the undeniable presence of Rosed Grave.

These are the artists defining the next sound of the scene.
