SICK16 is an online platform for the rap world geared towards speeding up the independent music development process and connecting artists with other skilled professionals with the shared goal of producing high quality projects front to back. 

The record industry has decided to give up on artistic development for the rap world, opting for already successful artists to be delivered to them on a silver platter, and we think there’s something wrong with that. SICK16 is our answer to this problem. A platform that gives you everything a record label would: connections to talented artists that specialize in areas you don’t focus on, historical tracking of your successes and failures, a megaphone to reach the fans that follow your niche, and a place to collaborate with like-minded artists to bring your vision to life.

We’re a team of designers, musicians, and developers with a shared love for music and the forward-thinking mentality that hip-hop culture embodies. We think everyone deserves a shot at sharing their artistic vision with the world and realized nobody was doing anything about it. That’s where we come in. We saw something broken, so we’re trying to fix it. 

As an independent artist with an idea and no means to make it come to life, we can connect the dots for you and get your vision heard.

As a team of de-centralized artists, we know your work process can take forever if you don’t have a studio and free time in everyone’s schedule to meet regularly. We allow you to develop your projects and hold your files in the cloud so scheduling issues are a thing of the past.

Most importantly, as a rap fan, we’re planning to bring you the next generation of cutting-edge hip hop ready to shape the face of the genre.
