Is NYC’s Indie Scene DYING or EVOLVING? 👀 Pretty Hustler Kanika Moor Tells ALL!!! – EPISODE 202

What’s REALLY going on with the NYC Indie Music scene right now… and where is it headed in 2026? 🤔

Kanika Moor aka “The Pretty Hustler” pulls up to the C.U.T.S. Podcast with Reemo Meerak and gets brutally honest about the state of independent music in New York City. From curating impactful events to helping shape conversations around the Top 40 Hip Hop Songs of 2025, she’s not just watching the culture… she’s influencing it.

In this episode, Kanika breaks down:

The REAL challenges indie artists face in today’s oversaturated market
What it actually takes to be a successful event curator (behind the scenes gems 💎)
How records make it onto “Top 40” lists — politics or pure talent?
Whether NYC is losing its grip on the culture… or reinventing itself for a new era

This isn’t just an interview — it’s a necessary conversation for artists, creatives, and anyone tapped into the culture.

🎙️ If you’re an indie artist, curator, or fan of the grind… this one might hit different.
