It’s a good thing the family garage is heated with the amount of time brothers Nik and Seth Helland spend out there. Housing their own recording studio and musical talents, the Brainerd brothers have begun to create a hip-hop sensation with Midwest Selects, proving that great hip-hop doesn’t have to come from the “big city.”
“Living in Brainerd, it’s more difficult to get stuff out there,“ said 19-year-old Seth. “But as we’ve kept working at it, and continue to do more and more things to get our names out there, people are starting to recognize, ‘oh they’re from Brainerd and look at the stuff they’re doing still’ and that’s exactly what we want them to think as we start making bigger and bigger moves.”
What started out as a joke with friends in 2009 has sprung in to a full-fledged passion for Nik and Seth, releasing four albums (“Midnight Snack”, “H.I.T.E”, “The ‘G’ Files” and “Brr”) with a fifth expected to drop in the near future.
