BATTLE EXHIB COMMON STAND - 4 vs 4 CREW
6 crews. 2 disciplines. Several generations. No jury, focus on the exchange!
Co-organized by PRISM and the association Congo Bolingo
COMMON STAND is a 4vs4 exhibition that brings together this year break and hip hop around two values dear to Common Quest: take a position and transmit. On the square, 6 French crews - 3 in break and 3 in hip hop - will bring together dancers from different generations. Old and new generations in each crew will be there to show how the story of a crew is passed on and continues to be written. Here, no competition: no jury, no ranking, no winner. The crews meet, answer each other and share in a fully exhibition format. Among the guests, Bboy Junior, a major figure in international breaking and double world champion with Wanted Posse, will be at the microphone to host COMMON STAND and share his views on intergenerational transmission. A role that also echoes his own commitment: through his solidarity association Projet Kongo, Junior also acts in support of the Congolese population. He will also speak on the cause defended that evening alongside Congo Bolingo. COMMON STAND × CONGO BOLINGO For this first edition, Common Quest is partnering with Congo Bolingo, a Nantes-based association committed to raising awareness of the realities experienced in the Democratic Republic of Congo and supporting the victims of war in the east of the country, notably through actions carried out with Congolese associations managed by young artists. When you take your ticket, you will have the option to add a free donation in favor of Congo Bolingo. All the donations collected will be directly donated to the association. The meeting will continue the next day with a talk led by Congo Bolingo about the realities experienced by hip hop artists from the eastern DRC.
