Representing The Underrepresented: UGK

The rap savvy may have discovered UGK, however they  remain a largely unknown group. The incarceration of Pimp C in 2002 led to Bun B forming a grass roots movement to free his counterpart in the rap duo. In doing so Bun B released the album Trill to support his partner. This brought Bun B attention on a national level and soon after attention to UGK’s 2007 album Underground Kingz (what UGK stands for). UGK’s recent recordings have surfaced in the main media, but most of their older recordings still remain in the underground scene.  This is their song “Underground” from the 1994 album  Super Tight.

Spotlight: UKF Dubstep

UKF Dubstep is the self proclaimed leading provider of bass heavy music to the UK. Their youtube channel is also a really good source for upcoming dubstep and electronic music from quality artists that are outside the mainstream circle. This is a track from the Skeptiks who made their debut with the single “Cobwebs”, which found its way onto the Beatport Top Ten. “Without A Name” is definitely bass heavy.
