The Hottest Christian Hip Hop Event is Back
The Vault is a medium through which Christian hip hop artists get to share thetreasures that God wants to reveal to each and every person through His Word. With lyricism, rhymes, poetry and a journey of their experience in ministry and in salvation, these Kingdom ministers are set, not only to entertain but to point this generation to Christ.
The bi-monthly event was an idea of five close friends who shared a common love for Hip Hop music. The concept behind the vault was to create a platform where hip hop and poetic artists in Kenya and around the world can get an opportunity to showcase their talents without any limitations.
We found out that compared to artists from other genres, hip hop artists in Kenya barely get the opportunity to perform in this other events and most of them end up discouraged and eventually giving up on their dreams, it is for this reason that the Vault concept was born.
The bi-monthly event aims to get artists these opportunities, exposure, mentorship and also training them on how to become artists of international standards. The idea behind having the event once in two months was to kill the monotony of having a monthly event, and also have people looking forward to the event.
The Vault’s aim is to achieve leadership of the Kenyan and African Hip Hop industry, by creating events and platforms for growth opportunity among hip hop artists. They will continue to demonstrate excellence, progressive growth and productivity in our subsequent events.
The 3rd Edition of the Vault will be held on Sunday, 17th February at the Abondoz Restaurant Rooftop, situated at the Luther Plaza, along Uhuru Highway (opposite Central Park) between 2:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. This edition is dubbed Love & Hip Hop and is set to be a celebration of love, especially this being the month of Love, a celebration of Hip Hop music and also a showcase of how Hip Hop music can be used as a tool for spread Love among various groups of people from different walks of life especially now that we are approaching a general election.
The third Edition will see Shem Otanga a.k.a SHEM, one of Kenya’s illest lyricist grace the stage as the Focus artist of the day. Shem is known for hits such as Wape Habari and King’s Mic.
