Celebrating Three Years of Local Love!

Happy New Year, Madtown! Local Love is back for 2025, and we’re kicking off the year in style with a celebration of three incredible years showcasing the best talent from the 608 and beyond. DJ Fusion is locked in with the first Local Love of the new year, and the lineup is nothing short of legendary.

Honoring Taye Sharkiee’s Legacy

We’re starting the year by paying homage to one of Madtown’s most beloved artists, Taye Sharkiee. His track “FNG Remix” featuring FBG Duck is a testament to his undeniable impact on the local music scene. This song reminds us of why Local Love exists—to honor and uplift our community’s talent.

Packed Lineup of 608 Artists

The energy didn’t stop there. Here’s a look at the full lineup that lit up our airwaves this Sunday:

• Romey brought us his iconic “Brew Crew” anthem, a WISCO vibe that resonates deeply with our listeners.
• RSHN6 kept the momentum strong with “Jump Ship,” setting the tone for the new year.
• Julica Rose delivered soulful vibes with “Don’t Need You Now.”
• Aaron Keel spiced things up with his fiery track “Spice.”
• Compound featuring Big Nook hit us with the fan-favorite “Low Key,” one of the most popular songs rated by our listeners.
• Chi-town Taurus showed why the Midwest stands tall with “Stepchild.”
• R.I.P. brought introspection and growth with “Grow.”
• ImJuskeem closed the circle with realness and reflection in “Never Thought.”

Closing with a Bang

We ended the night on a high note with Flame The Ruler and his track “Up.” This closer proved why the 608’s artists don’t just make noise—they create waves.
