Onassis Channel | The power of Greek Rap

How has the lyrical ‘pen’ of this younger generation evolved? What is their perspective in the wake of the trap explosion? How do they perceive the criticism and resistance often faced by artists in this scene? And ultimately, why do they choose to express themselves in the way they do, through their music? The fourth season of the “Society Uncensored” series wraps up with a discussion about a massive cultural phenomenon of our time: rap music and its power today. Αn art form that succeeded both commercially and artistically, despite starting out as the ultimate outsider.

The rappers Saske, Ladele, Katohos, and Mira—all with a significant discography and devoted followers—engage in a dialogue on all the above in the new discussion of the Society Uncensored series, shedding light on the present and the future of the Greek rap scene. They are joined by M.Hulot (aka Tasos Brekoulakis), editorial director of the print edition of LiFO, Christos Melidis (More), founder of Cool Geeks, and Andreas Metaxas, Senior Marketing Manager at Stay Independent and co-founder of Legal Pizza. Spilios Floros, a stand-up comedian with a strong presence on YouTube and Spotify, moderates the discussion.
