Various Artists - Room to Rant Volume 2 (World Suicide Prevention Month)
Room to Rant is a safe space for young men to get things off their chest using the median of rap and spoken word - run by Audio Active across Sussex.
The Room To Rant Mixtape is a product of these sessions and created entirely by young artists with the help of our mentors (Jon Clark and Hatter) at our community studios in Brighton and Worthing.
Our funding has come to an end recently and this project is a celebration and showcase of all the talent and powerful discussion that has come through our doors over the years.
Anger, Sadness, Frustration, Comedy, Violence and Vulnerability, the music reflects the emotions young men feel in our society today.
They are led by experienced music leaders who show how music can be a therapeutic release, whilst inspiring them to improve and strive for better creatively.
All sessions are attended by a mental health professional who can provide any additional support needed – such as referring young people for counselling and psychotherapy.
The project was funded by Comic Relief and delivered in partnership with Audio Active and YMCA Downslink.
