Mutual Aid Disaster Relief is a collectively-run, decentralized volunteer network supporting marginalized communities during crises, including the current COVID-19 pandemic, by providing resources, boosting local efforts, and sharing knowledge and skills. Acting as an autonomy, with a loosely-based, adaptable structure, alone or with other groups, MADR is able to focus and maximize its energy, efficiently responding to events as needed while avoiding pitfalls of traditionally-structured non-profits. The principle of "solidarity, not charity" means that actions are based on the stated needs of the communities it serves, working cooperatively rather than administering from above.
This is a co-release with fellow underground hip hop labels Audio Recon and Weird Rap. 100% of its profits are being donated to Mutual Aid Disaster Relief, supporting their efforts around COVID-19 and future disasters.
Interdependence is available via
weirdrap.bandcamp.com,
audiorecon.bandcamp.com, and ourselves plus all the usual other online outlets.

>>Weird Rap explores the exceptional, unusual, or otherwise "weird" currents of rap music, new & old. Across various platforms, we seek to nurture discussion, share new and old music releases, and spread general awareness of out-of-the-ordinary rap artists. Aside from social media, we host Weird Rap TV on YouTube, Weird Rap Radio on Spotify, WeirdRap on Reddit, and Weird Rap Records on Bandcamp, with a podcast currently in the works.
