Inua Ellam R.A.P. Party

  • The Barrel Store Unit 1, Ravenswood Industrial Estate London United Kingdom (map)

Waltham Forest London Borough of Culture is hosting Inua Ellams R.A.P party and supersizing it! With an evening of 20 poets, four DJ’s and four amazing venues all on Walthamstow’s famous Ravenswood Estate.

Neither a club night nor poetry reading, rave nor literary event, Inua Ellams' R.A.P Party is an unashamedly nostalgic, fun, no clutter, no fuss, evening of hip-hop inspired poems and favourite hip-hop songs.
