FEATURED ARTISTS:
Versoul is an Alternative Hip-Hop artist, producer and audio engineer from San Francisco. Since she was a baby, music has always been her outlet for self-expression and healing. Versoul began freestyling at the age of 8, then learned to produce beats at 13 using FL Studio. She dedicates her music to inspiring other mixed youth around the world to tell their story and embrace their power.
LOE Gino is a Berkeley native Hip Hop artist who uses his music as a way to draw pictures of his past. His album “Burning Sage 2” was released earlier this year and you can listen to some of its hits in all online platforms! Gino has a deep emotional connection with his music that transpires through each and every one of his performances, and he’ll be in charge of sending us home feeling invincible!
