About This Event
The Beat Genius presents "Words & Music," an innovative free showcase that combines Live Music, Spoken Word, and Rap performances into one cohesive evening of artistic expression at the London College of Contemporary Music (LCCM). This event will take place on April 24th at The Music Box, located at 241 Union Street, London, SE1 0LR.
Starting at 7:30 PM (doors open at 7 PM), the evening will feature a natural progression from melodic live performances to thought-provoking spoken word, culminating in a dynamic session of rap sets that blend both worlds.
