Kacha Kacha brings together original rappers, poets and singer-songwriters performing in Sinhala, Tamil and English. The event is known for providing a platform for uncensored expression and multi-lingual, smart beat making and rapping. Featuring artists who are socially conscious, performing their original material to an audience consisting of various strata of society, Kacha Kacha allows for a confluence of expressions, as each artist brings with them a different perspective to socio-political realities.
Imaad Majeed hosted the first Kacha Kacha as part of Colomboscope in August 2015, at Castle Hotel in Kompannavidiya. It has since been hosted in other such bars frequented by the working class in different parts of the city.
The upcoming edition, in collaboration with Colomboscope, will take place at the Government Service Sports Club in Colombo 05. The return of Kacha Kacha will be celebrated with performance and spoken word poetry contributions from Jaffna and New Delhi.
The event is free to the public.
