Elementary Showcase is a youth open mic event that gives any young Hip Hop artist a chance to rock the mic for his or her first time and/or to hone their skills. The show consist of an OPEN CYPHER: a freestyle circle of emcees that start the show off, set the vibe, and share their skills, an OPEN MIC: an emcee or group has three minutes to shine and share their original Hip Hop work, a B-GIRL/B-BOY CYPHER: exactly like the open cypher but for our hip hop contortionist, poppers, breakers, and Hip Hop dancers, and an EMCEE BATTLE: 4 young emcees under the age of 21 get on stage to showcase their talent and have some fun.
