EsRAP

NMS Deublergasse, 2018

“We rap a lot about migration”, Esra explains. Ten years ago, when she was still in school, she formed the rap-duo EsRAP together with her brother Enes. Today they are back in a secondary school in Floridsdorf to teach kids the basics of rap. Most youngsters here in the outer district of Vienna have a migration background and they listen closely when Esra talks about her own high school years in Austria as a girl coming from a Turkish family. Writing down her thoughts and feelings helped Esra to emancipate herself and find her voice. And that voice was in rap! So Esra and Enes invite the kids to reflect on their life, write and rap about it, before they go wild in the schoolyard with their performance of “Der Tschusch ist da”.
