The Rap Battles for Social Justice & SistersInMotion MTL are proud to present the Rap Battle for Representation. Hosted by Stella Adjokê and Meryem Saci, our show will be bringing in women, femmes of all spectrums, trans folks, non-binary folks, and others under-represented within Hip-Hop to be celebrated and in solidarity on stage. 

We will pay tribute to the many worlds of Hip-Hop with rap, r’n’b and spoken word performances. Backed by an all-female Hip-Hop and Soul band, Electric Ladies, alongside vocal harmonies provided by LOTUS, this show will be a fundraiser for Our Bodies, Our Stories, a youth arts program ran by the incredible Kama La Mackerel.

Curated by women and femmes and enjoyed by all, come out and lend your support!

Last but not least, we’d like to acknowledge that the work we do is on unceded Kanien’kehá:ka territories, a historical meeting place for many nations. As we all come to celebrate, dance, create and stand together across difference, we send gratitude, love, and prayers to the land and to our First Nation and Indigenous relatives, who have sustained the path of healing and joy through storytelling and song.
