Lineup:

Big Tree #4Real represents eastside ATX through and through. He has that southern swing with that eastside ATX vibe. No mumble rap here he can go from lyrical, to turn up, to trap, to twerk music, to just that southern swing making Tree a very versatile songwriter and lyricist. The first signee to the label in 2019 he brings a polished, gritty street sense to the team as displayed in his music. Check out his catalog of music available on all DSP platforms.

DJ Berlin is one of the best scratch masters in the ATX, and his career has spanned over two decades. He is the College of Hip Hop Knowledge’s DJ, part of AKAdemics, and has rocked with many legends through the years. His DJ sets are always fresh and unique, and he is also a phenomenal EDM producer. With his wide variety of experiences, DJ Berlin continues to bring high energy and cutting-edge music to the crowd.

A decade-plus rap veteran, Blakchyl’s Austin roots date back to her formative years in a youth hip-hop program and exploits with longtime musical group Mindz of a Different Kind. Multiple records in, with some offerings only scattered across particular streaming services, committed fans of the artist’s studied, tough-edged, but evolving hip-hop discover the connecting themes: various collaborators, that wisely mellow voice, and an underdog mentality. Her raps radiate assured swagger, beaming pride for East Austin. Blakchyl, aka Te’aunna Moore, has broached the topic of underappreciation a few times since fully pivoting to a solo career.

At College of Hip Hop Knowledge, our mission is to foster a paid and knowledgeable hip hop community in the ATX. Founded in 2015 by Big Mic and Jsun The Prophesor, we have been dedicated to empowering artists and helping them find their sound. We have a professional studio called The Academy in Bastrop, Texas, which is a great place to record and refine your skills. We have toured all across the United States to further the ATX sound and hip hop culture in general. We currently have 9 signed members that have individual music, as well as groups within CHHK, and we also perform as a group all together on-stage.

“Like the angry torrents of a dam releasing water, Doctor Disaster unleashes raw power with each blistering track on their debut EP, Problems. From heartache to pure hate, they craft every hellbent harmony with an unwavering commitment to truth-telling, and a careless disregard for political correctness. Punk as fuck, if you will.”

The Hazard Hounds are an amalgamation of soul, hip hop, rock and punk music, citing influences as diverse as its members and defining the sound of Austin, Texas.

Noire is an indie rock caravan based in ATX, creating soul-riveting music and electric onstage performances.

Anastasia Hera curates a phenomenal live music show, among the best in Austin’s live music scene since 2019, setting the bar for top-tier sound and stage presence. Anastasia Hera and the Heroes were welcomed as part of the Austin Music Foundation’s Artist Development Program (2021), as part of Sonic Guild’s Grant Class (2023), and the Mayor of Austin has proudly proclaimed June 1st “Anastasia Hera Day.”

Straight outta Detroit with a voice you’ve never heard and bars you’ll never forget, Bruiser Wolf is a breakout star of Danny Brown’s Bruiser Brigade. Known for his off-kilter flow, vivid storytelling, and hilarious punchlines, Wolf blends absurdity and realness like no one else in the game. His critically acclaimed album Dope Game Stupid made waves for its originality, drawing comparisons to MF DOOM and E-40, but sounding like no one but himself. This is not just a show — it’s a masterclass in charisma, rhythm, and raw Detroit creativity.

Blasting off from San Antonio, Concept the Hashtronaut is a cosmic force of lyricism and style. With spaced-out production, introspective bars, and a delivery smoother than moon rocks, Concept has carved out a lane all his own in Texas hip-hop. His sets are equal parts head-nod and elevation — rooted in boom bap tradition, but pushing boundaries toward the future. Whether he’s rocking solo or alongside hip-hop heavyweights, Concept takes listeners on a journey every time he hits the stage.

Repping San Antonio with sharp wit and Southern swagger, Hunter Dollars is a rising voice in independent hip-hop. With a style that blends golden-era punchlines, modern hustle, and an unmistakable drawl, Hunter’s live show is equal parts energy and craftsmanship. He’s shared stages with legends like Wiz Khalifa, Curren$y, Slim Thug, and DJ Paul of Three 6 Mafia — and now he’s bringing that same all-star presence to Flamingo Cantina. Come see why they call him the Kolache Kingpin.

When you totally soak in the melodic waves of Mountebank, you’re enveloped in something equal parts elated, taking a flying leap, while shredding and pounding out trippy folk-rock hues. SIPA is what Filipinos call an ancient game similar to what modern American stoners call hacky-sack. Mixing joy and athletic virtuosity, SIPA the band brings people together in much the same way. Swapping genre-bending riffs for the ball, the SIPA boys pass around sonic excellence.

Jeremiah Jackson is the king of Glam Daddy Blues, a genre that didn’t even exist until he invented it a few years ago. It’s basically an amalgamation of all that’s inspired him since he began playing guitar in high school 15 years ago, in the small East Texas town of Longview: Early 70s David Bowie-style glam, Led Zeppelin/Santana/Hendrix-style classic rock, and garage-blues duos such as The White Stripes and The Black Keys.
