Tezzerd Eagle and Swoe Whoa bring The Jiggalate to New York on On The Radar. Gabe P and Lady Jay share how they discovered the movement, their thoughts on the Jiggalate movement, and advice for rising artists.
From Naptown to New York
When regional culture reaches a national stage, it creates moments bigger than music. That is exactly what happened when Tezzerd Eagle and Swoe Whoa brought the “Jiggalate” movement from Indiana to New York City for a standout appearance on On The Radar.
The moment represented more than a performance. It was a celebration of Indiana energy, Naptown pride, and the power of music to connect cities and cultures.
How On The Radar Learned About Jiggalate
According to Gabe P., the movement came to his attention through Lady Jay, a key member of the On The Radar team with deep Indiana roots.
He explained that Lady Jay’s family is from the Indianapolis and Fort Wayne region, and she also attended Indiana University. After hearing about the song and dance a few months ago, Gabe P immediately saw the value in showcasing something meaningful to a member of the team and authentic to Indiana culture.
That decision turned into a national spotlight moment for Tezzerd Eagle & Swoe Whoa and the Jiggalate wave.
Naptown Talent Made a Strong Statement
When asked about seeing the Indiana artists in person, Gabe P spoke highly of the experience.
He shared that On The Radar values welcoming people from all walks of life because every appearance brings a new piece of culture into the room. He said the energy brought by Tezzerd Eagle, Swoe Whoa, Lil Billy, Kaz, Yo Mari and Norrie was needed, appreciated, and something he hoped made Naptown proud.
Lady Jay echoed those sentiments and said it was an incredible experience highlighting talent from Naptown and Indiana as a whole. She emphasized the importance of building community and connecting artists. She also noted how meaningful it was to see artists supporting each other throughout the event.
Lady Jay also remembered Norrie appearing previously during an On The Radar DJ set with DJ Draftpick, making his return even more exciting.
Could Tezzerd Eagle Return for a Remix?
When asked if Tezzerd Eagle could come back for a remix to Jiggalate, Gabe P kept the door wide open.
He explained that when any artist has a real movement that continues to grow, and when both the artist and On The Radar can amplify the moment together, it makes perfect sense.
That answer sends a clear message: keep building momentum.
Gabe P’s Advice for Artists Trying to Get On The Radar
Gabe P also offered honest advice for rising artists hoping to land on the platform.
First, he warned artists not to give money to scammers pretending to offer placements. He made it clear that On The Radar does not charge artists to appear.
Second, he encouraged artists to sharpen their craft and create music and content that stands out from the crowd instead of blending into it.
Finally, he explained that many artists are discovered organically through the team’s own feeds and research. There is no single formula, but consistent work gets noticed.
Special Thanks to Lady Jay
A special thank you goes to Lady Jay for helping bridge Indiana culture with a national audience. Her vision and connection helped create a moment that fans will remember.
