21:00-23:00 Sinsen’s Hour

This non-banal hip-hop artist will be hosted House of Words for the second time, with a new concert programme. In this city space, a stage arranged and furnished by Sinsen appears; it gives us a bit of time,  where spoken word and hip-hop find two different zones but at the same time they get common denominators. It’s a truly independent and one of a kind meeting with this artist that does not leave anyone indifferent to unusual topics he takes up and emotions he evokes. Expressive, improvised and sometimes toned down flow draws the attention of the listeners and makes it difficult to break away from the sounds that create a specific, mystical climate. At the same time, a play with words and meaning, sometimes even carefree, purposeful language errors are characteristic for his style. Sinsen’s music makes things come alive.

Sin Sen – an alien from Lublin, an independent rapper, enthusiast of sporken word and co-producer of his own work. He is an artists that keeps experimenting whose art goes beyond conventional hip-hop / House of Words Backyard, Królewska 17
