This weekend’s going to be a busy one, what with two concurrent events under the YOUTHx umbrella at the Singapore Sports Hub: Hyperplay and SHINE Festival.
The latter’s entertainment lineup is absolutely stacked with local and regional talent. When it comes to regional artists, Malaysian rapper Joe Flizzow (pictured, middle) leads the way with a 16 Baris showcase that will feature Malaysian rappers Airliftz, Altimet, Aman RA and others. Also performing are Christian Bautista, Thai singer TACHAYA and Japanese hip-hop artist JP THE WAVY.
As for Singaporean artists, the likes of Charlie Lim (pictured, left), Tabitha Nauser (pictured, right), Sezairi, M1LDL1FE, and more will be performing. Also showcasing their work are the four mentees of this year’s SHINEx *SCAPE Talent Development Programme: Yung Raja, Fariz Jabba, Houg and YAØ. These performances will take place at two stages: the Arena Park Village stage and the OCBC Square stage.
And that’s not all – there’s also a couple of talks with music industry professionals, organised by Aging Youth. On Saturday, Nigel Lopez of Middle Class Cigars, Edwin Waliman of Secret Signals and EMONIGHTSG, and Lennat Mak of Warner Music Singapore will be on a panel titled “Building a Community Around Your Brand” (RSVP here).
The day after, Paddy Ong from M1LDL1FE, Akeem Jahat and weish (sub:shaman and .gif) will be on a panel titled “The Artist’s Journey” (RSVP here).
There’s also a bunch of extra-musical programming, from F&B to interactive installations, games and urban art. And did we mention all this is free? Whew.
