Naw'M Talk Bout [audio:http://www.shuddup.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/NawM-Talk-Bout-final-mix.mp3] Like so many budding teenagers today, hip hop was a major force in JROD's life. Born Jamie Orr in the small town of Tifton in South Georgia, JROD started rapping at the age of 16. It didn't take a long for people to realize his distinctive rap skills and clever hooks. He was encouraged to become an artist and make a career of his talent. So JROD went to work writing and reciting his lyrics, and putting them to his own music. Being a true native of Georgia, JROD's music grew into the southern style rap and snap music that's so popular today. It wasn't hard for him to be his own producer. He was inspired… Continue reading Unsigned Shine: @JRODmusic1

Unsigned Shine: @Skiddalz

So I was at The CORE DJ Retreat in Orlando unsigned artist showcase and low and behold, guess what I found?  I already got a sweet tooth and I'm admittedly partial to Now & Laters and Skittles (bwahaaaaaaaaa) but I was pleasantly surprised to find a lil' white girl that could SPIT!!!! Not saying that white people can't spit, I mean look at Eminem, but I hadn't "heard of" any white girl spitting.  Anyway so I'm at the showcase, honestly preparing myself for the BS that you usually see at showcases (I'm just being honest) and Skiddalz hopped onstage and DESTROYED that shit! Not only could she spit but she had STAGE PRESENCE like a mug, something a lot of established artists… Continue reading Unsigned Shine: @Skiddalz

Unsigned Shine – @252ATrain

K.I.M Says:  I've been a little overwhelmed and SWAMPED lately but I initially created the "Unsigned Shine" spotlight to feature independent artists trying to get on without the politics and BS associated with getting your music out, so I'm BACK ON IT!!!!! I'm going to feature independent artists every other day so please send your music in mp3 format, a picture, bio and contact information to me via email to kim@shuddup.com and I'll post it on this page.  I'm not really screening the submissions because opinions vary and what I like someone else might not.  This forum is completely UNBIASED and not for sale like some other sites, you send it, I'll post it and that's that. By posting these songs doesn't imply I like or dislike the music being featured… Continue reading Unsigned Shine - @252ATrain

Unsigned Shine – Headphone Junkiez

The group met by chance at a local Church and instantly clicked, as well as cliqued.  Much like hometown favorites OutKast, you have to hear the Headphone Junkiez music in order to understand who they are and where they come from.  They don’t… Continue reading Unsigned Shine - Headphone Junkiez
