Audio Active: Room To Rant (Mental Health Awareness For Young Men)
Three more years and three more towns for Room to Rant.
Room to Rant, AudioActive’s space for young men to rap and get things off their chest, is branching out into new territory across Sussex.
Thanks to Comic Relief, and in collaboration with YMCA DownsLink Group, the rap and spoken word initiative that tackles men’s mental health will be in action across Brighton, Worthing, Crawley and Eastbourne for at least the next 3 years.
The rap sessions are led by highly-experienced and accomplished rappers who are well respected in the Brighton hip-hop and music scene. Members are encouraged to be themselves; talking and exploring struggles and life experiences through spoken word, rap and hip hop.
No prior rapping experience is needed at these relaxed, free-to-attend, weekly drop-ins, where young men build on lyric-writing and improvisation skills. The groups can still meet despite Covid-19 and there is one online group for those who can’t meet in-person. Anyone who identifies as male or non-binary aged 16-25 is welcome to attend Room To Rant after using the sign-up form via the link below:
