Reflecting on the motivation behind the event, Kanaka shared, “I was looking to host something new, something different, and Sonia is a friend of mine. As you can see, she mostly employs women. I was brainstorming with her about ideas around women empowerment. Naturally, we decided to host a women in hip hop event.”
“I took the initiative to familiarize myself with new songs, conducting thorough research and learning tracks previously unknown to me. Looking back, I am pleased with how the event unfolded,” he said.
Despite a delay in starting time, attributed to the mid-week scheduling, the majority of attendees were women looking to groove to hip hop tracks by female artists. Kanaka’s playlist for the night remained dedicated to women in hip hop.
