Spotlight on Hip Hop Artists

Occhi Arts & Entertainment is inviting Hip-Hop musicians, dancers, and spoken word artists to collaborate on a series of special interview features celebrating the music, dance, and culture of Hip-Hop.

We’re looking for artists whose work reflects contemporary Hip-Hop culture while carrying forward its most progressive, community-building roots—expression that uplifts, challenges, and connects people across the diaspora. Our platform is dedicated to celebrating the arts, including Hip-Hop as a movement of creativity, social consciousness, and cultural pride.

To keep that mission clear, we’re not accepting submissions that include derogatory, sexist, or demeaning content - something too often associated with Hip Hop as a music genre. We’re especially keen to spotlight unsigned and independent artists, and to amplify voices that deserve wider recognition.
