Milwaukee rap artist seizes opportunity to be heard by a national audience

 

WebsterX is hoping to become the next big thing in the world of rap. The Milwaukee artist is one of 20 to be featured nationally by Slingshot, a new collective effort among taste-making stations including Radio Milwaukee to elevate profiles of exceptional emerging artists.

WebsterX and the other selected artists will be introduced to national audiences on NPR’s World Cafe program and on NPR’s All Songs Considered podcast. NPR and VuHaus will also feature the artists through on-air programming and a curated Slingshot Spotify playlist.
