About The Glass Kage

Amplifying the Underground. Curating Culture.

Founded on May 27, 2025, The Glass Kage is an independent digital publication spotlighting the edge of music, art, and underground culture. Headquartered in Billings, Montana and owned by Glass Kage Publishing, the platform blends editorial precision with creative rebellion.

Led by Chief Editor Jesse Saksa, a former independent artist with over a decade spent honing his voice as a writer and performer, The Glass Kage was born from a deep understanding of the grind. Hip hop was the starting point, but the hunger never stayed in one lane. This platform documents and amplifies artistry from every genre, always searching for those rare creators who cut through the static.

We’re drawn to the ones who’ve shaped their work through years of quiet discipline. The ones whose craft reflects not just passion, but precision. Because to most, the difference between a sharpened blade and one forged by a master might be invisible. Yet to those who’ve studied the art, the difference is everything. That subtle edge is what separates a good artist from one with the power to truly change the conversation.

Through original interviews, reviews, and cultural commentary, The Glass Kage challenges the mainstream narrative with clarity and conviction. We serve as a syndication-ready hub for indie music journalism, visual storytelling, and experimental media rooted in authenticity.

We collaborate with independent artists, promoters, and cultural tastemakers across North America to cultivate a dynamic network of creators that span genres, geographies, and generations. As we continue to grow, The Glass Kage reflects the evolving terrain of underground culture.

Uniting voices from the margins into a boundary-breaking conversation with reach, weight, and purpose.
