Lojii

https://lojii.bandcamp.com/

Philly rapper-producer Lojii has been on Rap fans radars since his 2017 release “Due Rent.” Living in LA throughout the 2010s, Lojii stood out as a true wordsmith in the west coast’s independent Hip-hop scene. He moved back to Philly, and continued to grow a cult-fanbase for his adept penmanship and hazy production. Lojii’s diverse discography includes collaborations with Remy Banks, Ho99o9, Asher Roth, Moor Mother, and SoulGlo. Last year’s $TARTER_PACK EP with Alexander Spit, finds the seasoned emcee energetic, and eager to further elevate his sound.

THERAVADA

NYC DJ/Producer/Rapper THERAVADA has been a consistent force in the city’s experimental Hip-Hop scene since his critically acclaimed 2017 project “XEN GRIFFEY.” The Queens native primarily releases music through his own label 2000 ENT, but has collaborated with notable artists including Earl Sweatshirt, Navy Blue, Evidence, Starker (YL), ANKHLEJOHN, and LORD JAH-MONTE OGBON. His 2023 collaboration project with Zoomo “Waste Management” shows THERAVADA is more entrenched in his sound than ever.

Wiles Martyr and his team independently distribute projects under Philadelphia-based Scary Hours, a cassette company/multimedia renaissance group. His most recent bodies of work include 2023’s “Let The Poor Say I Am Rich” & “STYLE POINTZ V1.”

Irk

West Philly creative Irk (AKA Irkatron) is a talented artist across multiple mediums. Whether it’s directing a music video, designing cover art, or blessing a mic with bars about their perspective on the everyday struggle, Irk is going to outdo themselves every time.

This past year, Irk has released a slew of singles with accompanying music videos on YouTube, and plans on dropping their debut EP “UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE, I DON’T LIKE ANYBODY!” in the near future.
