Hip-hop showcase with open mic cypher. Calling all Melbourne rappers to come show your skills!
There was once a lull in productivity from the Vibe Union crew. Disillusioned and disoriented from back to back lockdowns, having nothing to write about and drained of creative juices.
Then came Sixpence……..offering up a folder with 150+ beats and inducing:
“THE SIXPENCE EFFECT”
The act of being possessed to write new raps after listening to a Sixpence beat.
Tonight we will dine on divine production with hope to spread relief to the heavy hearts of Melbournians.
Vibe Union Presents the following artists under “THE SIXPENCE EFFECT”
