The Bavubuka All*Starz Hip Hop Project

September 17, 2009

The Bavubuka All*Starz Hip-Hop Project focuses on engaging the youth in various initiatives through the arts, particularly rap music and film production.  Giving youth the unique chance to openly express their views, Bavubuka All*Starz helps young people raise awareness about the issues they feel are important in their communities.  In 2008, Bavubuka All*Starz continued to build on their past success by working consistently with approximately 25 youth who aspire to be rappers, music producers, break-dancers, and video directors.  Every Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday, Bavubuka All*Starz hosts Luga Flow hip-hop community workshops at the Bavubuka Community House in Bulange. Young men and women learn how to write and structure rhymes and flow patterns while also gaining a sense of cultural pride as they deliver positive messages in their native tongue, Luganda.
