📻⚡️WATZ UP ! Season 30 Episode 2: SONIC RESISTANCE⚡️📻
🎧✊🏾🎶 Music and activism have been intertwined for generations and have been used as a method in advocating for social change. Lyrics, sounds, and beats gave artists the tools they needed to authentically communicate complex issues, unite people through shared emotions and experiences, and give a voice to the marginalized.
Join the Wattz Up! crew as we dive into tackling activism in music. Join Edna as she dives into 2008 confrontations between Emos and Punks and Layla as she interviews Amira Jazeera about her debut album, The Amira Diaries, and bringing awareness to what’s happening in Palestine through her platform. Enjoy the chat with Julie about the use of artificial intelligence in the music industry, a piece from Gilbert about Latin American artists, and later Stephanie’s interview with the one and only Brian Herrera. Throughout the show, we’ll also spin a selection of tracks curated by Chantal and the rest of the team throughout the episode, so don’t miss out on this one 📡🎤🎼📻
