Here is what you might have missed from some well-kept secrets in music, and what's coming soon. Indie pop and alternative hip hop are evolving to a whole new level.

1. Broke by Jack Fargo
LA Pop artist Jack Fargo picked up steam in 2022 with his viral single "Broke" along with other strong releases. With the momentum gained from the successes in 2022, he is expected to continue with big things in 2023. He is still flying largely under the radar, but his fresh sound of relaxed vocals, star-powered production, and feel good music will make him something special to watch.

2. Culprit by Reverse Mechanic
Minneapolis rapper/producer Reverse Mechanic has been releasing new content every month since early 2022, with more new singles and music videos scheduled every month through the entirety of 2023. His 2022 hit "The Culprit" led the charge to the over 175,000+ youtube views he racked up in 2022. His lyricism is top notch, and his music videos are wildly entertaining. There are plenty of fresh new alternative hip hop and indie pop flavors he has scheduled for release throughout 2023.

3. Take Care of Yourself by Dylan Owen
New York rapper Dylan Owen is rare underrated talent. The independent artist has a spellbinding way of weaving beautiful and honest tapestries of human existence into the fabric of every song he touches. In 2022, he released several new pieces, including his hit "The Best Ships" off of his 2022 project Take Care of Yourself. He is starting 2023 off with a new single featuring Ceschi Ramos, and he is anticipating big things this year.

4. Splat by Connor Price
You've probably already heard of independent Canadian rapper/producer Connor Price as he rose to incredible levels in 2022, but we still had to put him in this list. His song "Splat" was just one of the torrent of new singles that turned heads in 2022 (averaging two studio singles/month), and was one of the top new artists of the year (statistically speaking). After putting his stamp all over the Billboard charts, he is positioned to continue to rise in 2023. From Toronto to LA, he is making his mark all over the world.

5. HVN by Nur-D
Minneapolis hip hop artist Nur-D made big strides in 2022 with several releases, including his album HVN. His soulful infusion of RnB and Hip Hop give him a unique sound and flavor that set him apart. With a growing fanbase and word getting out about his energetic shows, he is set for new heights in 2023. Watch for a big impact on the midwest in 2023.
