Saturday night was a proud night for the DMV’s burgeoning music scene. Twelve of the area’s best and brightest acts shared the stage at the Hamilton and the result was a resounding display of the diverse talent that resides in the D.C. area.
Earlier this year, Brightest Young Things released its list of “Top 25 DMV Artists to Watch In 2013.” The article generated such positive feedback that BYT decided to go ahead and make it into a live mixtape of sorts.

BYT: TOP 25 DMV ARTISTS TO WATCH IN 2013
The ever-amazing folks at Brightest Young Things have compiled their list of the ‘Top 25 DMV Artists to Watch in 2013.’
BYT makes good on its promise and delivers a solid list of local artists poised to blow-up this year. It is crazy to see how many legitimately talented artists–especially rappers–reside in the area.
Our pick for “Most Likely to Succeed in 2013” is rapper Shy Glizzy.
