Quality music and great content are two things that are hard to find. Luckily, web series give underground and indie artists a chance to shine on an unlikely platform.

The web series below will have you blasting music of new artists every week!

1. Black and Sexy TV

Black & Sexy TV is an entertainment network that features content reflecting modern day black culture. The company has skyrocketed in the past three years and now features pay per view content on the site VHX . Their multiple web series feature artists like Morisha Danee, Aziz Collins, and Ari Lennox who carry soulful vocals throughout the series.

Philadelphia R&B artist Aziz Collins’ songs “I’ll Try” and “Skylines” were featured on Black & Sexy TV’s web series Hello Cupid and RoomieLoverFriends . Collins says he wasn’t familiar with the impact a web series could have on an artist until a friend convinced him to submit his songs to Black & Sexy TV. He had already released his solo project NiteJobDayDreamer and most of his fan base was familiar with his music from the band U.City formally known as United Soul in Philly. “Once BSTV started playing my music, my SoundCloud page pretty much exploded! I had no idea that my music and their audience would be such a perfect match,” said Collins. His music can be found on SoundCloud and the album is available on iTunes and Google Play. Another singer from Country Club Hills, Illinois featured on RoomieLoverFriends was Morisha Danee. As an indie artist, Danee said her fanbase was relatively small and that Black and Sexy contributed to her growth. “I do feel that web series will be the next really big thing and if you’re an artist you should jump on an opportunity, don’t just sit around and wait!” said Danee. Her EP titled ThisIsMePart1Mellow can be purchased on Google Play and iTunes. Black & Sexy TV creates mixtapes from the web series that can be downloaded for free on Bandcamp .

2. First

The web series First was created by Jahmela Biggs which is a story about two friends who have known each other since middle school and become lovers. The series features music from up and coming artists of every genre. First has featured up and coming artists Alex Isley and Joonie to well known artists Stacy Barthe and Jaspects .

Music supervisor Philippe Pierre combs through music and creates folders of songs he likes and then he plays them along with different scenes from the show. He looks for music that shows diversity and range.

“I don’t want to use only R&B, Soul, and Hip-Hop because that’s rather limiting to tell an universal story, ” said Pierre. He said artists like Alex Isley and Joonie “can carry you from emotion A to emotion Z.”

Music of different genres is important because the storyline of First is appealing to everyone. “On First, we try to feature all genres. That was one of the main things I wanted to be intentional about coming into this project,” said Pierre.
