Under the motto "it's time for something different for a change," and following last year's success, hip hop enthusiasts have been catered for again this year. Sausin, De Stroate, and Harder Aanpak have put together a full evening's program.

ANT! (BE)

Geekwonder (BE)

GEEKWONDER is a creative Ghent-based duo formed by lifelong friends August Wonder and Kid Geek. Together, they deliver an innovative and heartfelt blend of alternative hip-hop, pop, electronic, and indie music. While August shines as the musical mastermind behind the production and arrangements, Kid Geek perfectly complements him with strong visual concepts, community-driven energy, and catchy vocal lines. The duo recently traveled to Porto, Portugal, to completely immerse themselves in the creation of their impressive debut album, REVIVER. Get ready for a boundary-pushing, emotionally charged live show from two talents who are truly inseparable.

De Stroate (BE)

De Stroate is not just an act; it is the absolute home base for and by the vibrant hip-hop community in Kortrijk. With this unique showcase, the best local MCs and beatmakers present themselves in all their glory to celebrate the entire spectrum of urban culture. Driven by a tireless bottom-up mentality, this crew of local talent proves just how energetic and raw homegrown hip-hop truly sounds.

Hardere Aanpak (BE)

Originating from a small-scale underground hip-hop party in Ghent, Hardere Aanpak has since become a leading platform under the wings of curator J9RR9. This collective gathers ruthless underground rappers as well as established names from the broad Flemish scene onto one stage. Expect an explosive show completely centered around crushing beats, lightning-fast bars, and a constant storm of unfiltered energy.
