Date/ Time: 29 August – 1 September 2013, full days
Event Title: Girls’ Rap, German-Polish Rap Seminar for Women
Led by Lena Rogowska and Katarzyna Regulska-Lokanga
 
How can I write good lyrics? What do punchline, flow and freestyle mean? Where does charisma come from and how to I work with a microphone? Girls’ Rap is a workshop for girls and women who want to try out rapping. The objectives of the workshop are creating lyrics, rapping and recording your own songs. The wider theme of the workshop is gender identity on stage.

Workshop Programme
    • We will explain the history of hip-hop and look into the values that are connected with it.
    •   We will explain the structure of building rap songs and the stylistic features that appear most commonly in them. We will also present various techniques of creative personal and group writing. We will ask: What is important for you? What do you want to speak about loudly, and what don’t you?
    •  We will work on rhythm, breath and the voice. We will show you how charisma works and how a microphone operates. We will also work on how to overcome personal barriers that come with public appearances on stage.
    •  The workshop will culminate in recording songs in a mobile recording studio and presenting an installation with recordings as well as live performances.
