Milwaukee DJ and event promoter, Travis “DJ Heathen” Chambers, has been a fixture on the local hip-hop scene for years.

Since he was 17 years old, Chambers has been networking tirelessly. A former member of The Core DJ’s and intern forMilwaukee’s 103.7 Kiss FM, Heathen currently works withBlowradio.com as an On-Air mixer and is the promotions/bar manager for night club 618 Live on water.

Aside from hosting parties and various events around the city, Chambers may be most well known for his numerous mixtapes--he's got four of them. When he’s not dropping a project of his own, he’s usually lending his vocals—talking in between songs—to someone else’s.

Heathen’s latest project, a new mixtape and viral campaign called “#WatchMKE,” may be his biggest undertaking to date. Using artists like DJ Khaled as his inspiration, Chambers created a compilation of diverse local artists to develop additional awareness of Milwaukee’s hip-hop scene, both locally and nationally.

“I really just wanted to create an album similar to that of what DJ Khaled and DJ Drama are doing,” Chambers says. “There building brands and raising awareness of artists by releasing albums.”

With his own promotional team, “Team Heathen,” ready to spread the word through social media outlets and good ole' fashion street promotions, and the launch of his website (www.watchmke.com), Chambers feels he is at the forefront of Milwaukeehip-hop’s next big thing.

“I look forward to what this album has to offer, I hope that this album will provoke artists who are unfamiliar with each other to work together,” Chambers explains.

The compilation features contributions from a number of prominent hip-hop and R&B artists including, G. Womack, Coo Coo Cal, Prophetic, Pizzle, Aliesa Nicole, and Baby Drew”

“I wanted this album to be a melting pot, so many different types of artists you’re almost forced to check it out,” Chambers remarks. “Every aspect of this album was Milwaukee based; the artwork was done by Terrell Morgan, mixing and mastering by Godxilla, the website is being designed by Topix and all of the production is from locally based producers as well.”
