Madison is locked in for a major hip hop moment as Sleazy World Go hits The Annex Madison on Friday December 12 for one of the most anticipated Midwest rap shows of the year. Powered by Midwest Mixup, this night blends national buzz with local talent and puts Madison’s hip hop scene front and center.

Sleazy World Go broke through with the viral anthem Sleazy Flow, a record that shook playlists nationwide and earned a remix from Lil Baby. Beyond the numbers, Sleazy represents the grind. A Midwest artist through and through, known for his humility, work ethic, and authenticity, he has built a loyal fanbase by staying true to the culture. His live shows bring raw energy and a connection that hits different in an intimate venue like The Annex.

A Strong Local Lineup Supporting the Headliner

Opening the night is a stacked lineup showcasing Madison and regional talent. Ayo Keys, a staple in the Madison hip hop community, brings experience, polish, and stage presence. Raxx Randed Up represents the next wave, a young artist gaining momentum with recent visuals and strong crowd reactions. Zondo, a rising artist connected to KS Studios, steps in with fresh energy and buzz after impressing Midwest Mixup with his sound and work ethic.

Adding even more heat to the night is Star Bandz, an Illinois rapper gaining national attention and joining as direct support. Her presence brings extra star power and makes this lineup one of the most balanced hip hop bills Madison has seen all year.

The Up Next Series Builds Unity Through Hip Hop

This show also connects to Midwest Mixup’s Up Next Series, an ongoing platform designed to bring local and regional artists together on one stage. Each installment features ten artists performing alongside one another, creating opportunities for networking, collaboration, and real community building.

The inspiration behind the series is simple but powerful. Give artists a space to prove themselves, build relationships, and respect the craft. From first time performers to seasoned veterans, the Up Next Series keeps Madison’s hip hop ecosystem growing.

The next Up Next Series lands December 27 at The Annex Madison, carrying holiday energy straight into the new year with ten more artists ready to shine.

What’s Next at The Annex Madison

Midwest Mixup is closing the year strong and already setting the tone for 2026. January continues with major shows including PZ on January 22 and LG Malik on January 31, blending hip hop, R and B, and crossover appeal. Beyond rap, The Annex keeps things diverse with rock, EDM, and special themed events, proving it remains one of Madison’s most versatile live music venues.
