Underexposed:Indie Hip-Hop in Atlantaa short film by w. feagins, jr.Over the past two decades Atlanta's population has exploded with a tremendous influx of transplants from cities across the nation and world, bringing with them their talents, skills, experience and individuality. As a result of its changing population, Atlanta's indie hip-hop scene has become a large, diverse and active cross-section of artists. Yet Atlanta, as with most cities, remains to be defined primarily by its mainstream artists.
In 2009 I relocated to Atlanta with the same misconception about the independent hip-hop scene that most people have...
...there is only one type of artist and one style of music... I was wrong.
