Ep 3: Go DJ! What is the Role of Black Creativity? feat. SCETCH

Published on: 7th October, 2021

Creativity plays such an important role in our community.

Partly because art is something that doesn't require permission and empowers us to comment on the conditions we see in our society while imagining something different.

Hip Hop is a key component of our culture and long before rappers became the focus, the DJ was the one who moved the crowd.

For this episode, I am joined by SCETCH, to discuss the role of the DJ and how creatives can profit from their cultural capital.

SCETCH is an acronym that stands for Success - Conquers - Everything - That - Challenges - Him
