The City of Women festival will end with a night dedicated to young female hip-hop artists who wow the crowds with their confident performances, sharp rhythms, and powerful lyrics. The concert will start at an unusually early hour so that the performers can reach out to and inspire younger audiences.

Fraw Blanka raps about the “side effects” of patriarchy: the norms that require women to be kind and non-aggressive. Raging against injustice and lies, she exclaims: “Don’t fake it!”.

The music of hip-hop and R’n’B artist Masayah is gentle yet ruthlessly critical of self-evident beliefs, her advice being: “For my birthday, give me a mic / Not a fucking flower / What good is it to me / If I can’t use it / To make something of myself / So we can have a better future”.
