Hip hop, which originated in the outskirts of the city, goes beyond artistic expression by fusing music, dance, fashion and graffiti. It benefits local youth, promoting awareness and cultural strengthening, and is a tool for empowerment and social inclusion in the outskirts of the city. In the context of Pernambuco, it connects young people to local culture, strengthening authentic unions.
