The Opportunity
This summer, Big Heff launches the "Streets Most Wanted Summer Tour," carrying on a 5 year tradition to help break indie talent. The indie artist showcase will be an opportunity for up-and-coming acts to shine at live shows and at radio appearances throughout the Midwest and the East Coast. Throughout the tour, many Nerve DJs will check out new music from the artists, who operate as station directors and on-air DJs who often times spin records from artists they find on Big Heff's tour.
The Streets Most Wanted Tour is presented by The Nerve DJs, the Midwest's premiere DJ coalition that helps break up and coming talent and helps the majors reach the masses. Led by Big Heff and DJ Johnny O, the Nerve DJs have become the go-to resource for breaking records from Minnesota to New York, providing acts with a platform to be heard on radio. The tour is also presented by Online Crates a multimedia site focused on curating content specifically related to urban culture and music.
