With a full house at Hot TV on November 6, the voices of Indie Artists, the community and entertainment supporters were heard loud and clear.

More importantly, people are discussing the change in media and the representation of Indie Artists in the Houston and surrounding areas.

The Hot TV stage was laced with pure talent from Indie Artists as K-Rino performed with precision and a verbal eruption, spitting true knowledge. Vince Bryant, showcasing his verbal diversity ignited the crowd performing hits like GoodTimes, produced by the “JDilla Reincarnated” producer, Jeffrey Sadik McNeil.
