Hip hop education company B-Better has unveiled its Everyday People campaign aiming to engage and empower 12 regular people in different disciplines of hip hop over the course of a year.
“It’s apparent that B-Better has long been referred to as a ‘dance company’, ‘dance school’, ‘hip hop dance school’ and a number of other things sounding similar,” Damien Anyasi, founder of B-Better, commented on the company blog. “What many people hadn’t noticed is that we have always embraced the hip hop culture as a whole.”
Each month the 12 apprentices B-Better has taken on board studying the areas of b-boying, graffiti, beatbox, MCing, and DJing will be set a challenge to overcome which will be decided by B-Better, their assigned mentor or the general public, culminating in monthly video interviews with the apprentices and mentors to represent the ‘real’ side of hip hop not shown on TV.

New followers can follow, engage and influence the outcome of the apprentice’s challenges on Facebook and Twitter with the hashtag #EverydayPeople.
B-Better is a hip hop education company based in the UK seeking to educate and empower the general public through classes, workshops and events through self-expression.
