This blog is as cool as it sounds. Earmilk mostly features recognised artists but there is also room for a handful of underground artists. They also blog about premieres, reviews, and trending hip-hop news. You can submit your music through the Earmilk SubmitHub platform.
We love the way GrungeCake weaves stories around artists. Their artsy theme attracts thousands of hip-hop aficionados to their page. The best part is they “guarantee a response” if you send your music through this link.
Like the name says, this blog is dedicated to showcasing rising artists. They have a way with picking out an artist’s boldest work and highlighting them through their quirky blog posts. The Underground Underdogs “Top 10 Songs You Need To Hear This Week” feature steals the show with eccentric artists like Lil Lotus, Hook, JPDREAMTHUG, nocloud, Lil Narnia and more.
