The 21st century is the undisputed era of the internet. Fortunately for independent artists, that makes it very easy to put out their music for free with potential to blow up. As many high school students know, SoundCloud is the new most common way for basement rappers to turn into hip-hop superstars. Countless household names have started off their careers on the waves of SoundCloud. The most popular artists range from Post Malone to Bryson Tiller, Lil Uzi Vert to Chicago’s very own Grammy-winner, Chance the Rapper. So give this half-hour playlist that’s full of up-and-coming SoundCloud artists a listen. Who knows, you might even be listening to the next hip hop megastar.
