The Rap Life playlist is home to hip-hop’s heavy hitters and its vanguard, which means that the Rap Life DJ mix has everything in hip-hop you need to hear right now. This month, the mix was helmed by New Jersey’s Stevens “SHOWCASE” Germain, a man who made a name for himself locally through an innate ability to draw parallels between distinct subsets of hip-hop some fans would think at odds with each other. “With my mix I wanted to offer a wide range of the rap that I’ve grown to love,” SHOWCASE says. “Whether that be underground, blog era, contemporary, old-school, rage, and everything in between. My goal was to blend all of my favorites and bridge the gaps. Where else can you get Jay Electronica, Carti, MAVI, and The Cool Kids in one set?” Listen to SHOWCASE’s Rap Life mix now, and check back each month for more one-of-a-kind mixes.
