Rapworx: Youth Rap Project (Archive)
RAPWORX
is the result of Escare, YoofArt Attack, the Dept. of Community Development
and the Office of Children and Youth, working together to develop an Esperance
project for National
Youth Week 2004.
Rap Workshops
Rap is an element of Hip Hop, the vocal expression of lyrics in sync to a beat or rhythm beneath it, usually provided by a DJ or rhythm track. DJ Fallout (Damien Kietal) ran the workshops, teaching the participants necessary skills required for performing 'Rap'. These included:
- Learning to compose lyrics
- Learning to rhyming along with rhythms
- Working in a recording studio
- And producing the Rapworx CD
