Milwaukee's WebsterX takes next big step, signs with national agent

Well, this is a good summer for Milwaukee's WebsterX. He released what could be one of the year's best music videos, put on an amazing show at Summerfest and now just signed with the national booking agency Surefire.

Surefire reprenents some amazing independent artists like Om Unit, Awesome Tapes of Africa, MNDSGN, Machinedrum and more.  So I suspect the country will see more of this homegrown talent in the near future.  

Check out the official bio:

Sam Ahmed, otherwise known as WebsterX, is a 22-year-old recording artist from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Beginning his music career in 2013, WebsterX released his first mixtape "Desperate Youth" that launched him into the Milwaukee music scene. With Milwaukee on his back, WebsterX has released two singles "Doomsday" and "Lately" that have received national press from Complex, Noisey, Entertainment Weekly Pigeons & Planes and many more. WebsterX has won the Radio Milwaukee Solo Artist of the Year Award and has played sold out performances with artists such as Mick Jenkins, Atmosphere, Riff Raff and performed at Milwaukee's own Summerfest in front of 10,000 people as direct support for Lupe Fiasco. WebsterX is also a member of the Milwaukee artistic collective New Age Narcissism.
