Graph and songs reveal rampant collaborating between members of Seattle's new rap guard
Posted by Andrew Matson
In writing about Go! Machine—concerts Friday and Saturday Dec. 4 and 5 that, my article argues, represent Seattle rap's new guard—I realized all 12 Go! Machine acts have made songs together. Off the top of my head, a list was made. See the graph and songs below.
The graph and song list are incomplete. For example, Katie Kate is left off because I don't know her music, but know she's made songs with Mad Rad/Fresh Espresso members. And there could be even more extant collaborations between Go! Machiners...like I said, I grabbed from the tip of my brain's tongue. Also: Fresh Espresso and Mad Rad are counted as the same collaborator because P Smoov is in both groups.
Yes, the inspiration for this post came from Rachel Ratner's Cartographic Study of Musical Incest.
