(MILWAUKEE) - Steve Miller, Woody Herman, Eric Benet, and Al Jarreau are just some of the famous singers and musicians born in Milwaukee. But who are the local pioneers of what has become one of the most popular music genres today?
A team at 88.9 Radio Milwaukee is on the search for Milwaukee’s hip hop history and they’re making the focus of a new podcast called Backspin.
