Japanese hip-hop media outlet 03- Performance has launched a free Discord community called 03- Connect. The community is open to rappers, music producers, video directors, engineers, designers, and photographers, as well as hip-hop listeners. It aims to solve the lack of connections that often hinders new artists and young creators by providing a space to recruit collaborators, request beats or artwork, match for video production, and exchange information.
03- Performance, the Japanese hip-hop media outlet that focuses on street performances and emerging artists, has opened a free Discord community called 03- Connect. The community is designed for rappers, music producers, music video directors, recording engineers, designers, and photographers, as well as general hip-hop listeners. Members can recruit collaborators, request beat or artwork creation, match for music video production, find live performers, and exchange tips on social media management. The move addresses a common barrier for new artists and young creators: a lack of connections to the right talent for music and video production.
03- Performance has built its reputation on YouTube with live videos and interviews, and more recently expanded into offline events through its BLOCK 03- project. 03- Connect extends that activity into a persistent online space where the matching that used to happen informally can happen on a dedicated platform.
