Go beyond the superficial surface of commercial hip hop with Deep In The Trenches, RAPstation's new weekly show that goes deep on underground hip hop and rap with DJ Mercury and host Mikey D.
Both DJ Mercury and host Mikey D have had over thirty years of experience in the hip hop game -- DJ Mercury began his illustrious career in 1984, spinning records for college radio, eventually working with legends like Funk Master Flex and Professor X the Overseer. Mikey D is a bona-fide Queens legend, having been part of the immensely influential 90's group Main Source, and is widely respected today as one of the best battle rappers in hip hop history.
DJ Mercury and Mikey D teamed with Grand Wizard Rasheen to form the supergroup The Elements of Hip Hop in 2013, and DJ Mercury and Rasheen also worked together to run a 24 hour, pirate radio station airing the best in classic and true school hip hop, which was unfortunately shut down by the FCC.
DJ Mercury and Mikey D have brought their skills and their immense knowledge of hip hop to RAPstation, where they now host Deep In The Trenches, a weekly show that showcases the best underground and unsigned talent that you won't find on the corporate owned radio. Get the jump on tomorrow's big acts with the most innovative and raw artists, and get a reminder of what true hip hop is supposed to sound like with Deep In The Trenches.
Deep In The Trenches airs every Sunday at 10:00pm EST here on RAPstation.
