Background
Nordens Institut i Grønland has entered into a cultural partnership with Det Starter Med Musikken in Allattarl! to give young people a voice, enabling them to collaboratively develop their own stories, share their experiences, and express what is happening in their lives through music and lyrics. Allattarl! is rooted in local support that strengthens young people in being heard and taking the stage, and sprung from the writing competition and short story anthologies Allatta!, developed by NAPA and partners since 2013.

Since 2018, Det Starter Med Musikken has conducted more than 20 rap camps and related intensive music programs with over 350 young participants. The rap camp format is an intensive musical learning process in which young people work closely with professional rappers, producers, and coaches in safe, creative communities that strengthen both artistic and social development. Previous participants describe the programs as life-changing experiences, where they discover new communities, find the courage to perform on stage, and realize that their voice has value.

See you at Allattarl!

The event is supported by: NAPA – Nordens Institut i Grønland, Tusass, NunaFonden, Grønlands Kunstfond, Kommuneqarfik Sermersooq, Greenland Brewhouse, Bolt Lamar, LC Music, and Koda.
