Diamond in the Rough Open Mic

ABOUT:

I have received so much love and support for this mixtape and have been blessed enough to go on tour! I am dedicating this night to give back to the community and create a open mic for poeple who are just like me-a Diamond in the Rough. This is a community-driven open mic centered around expression, growth, and transformation. This is an open mic for the people who know that they are more than their current circumstances. With life always happening and bills never stopping, we often feel pressure to become something great. Tonight is our night to express that feeling and be a light for someone else.

ADDITIONAL INFO:

How to Perform: Sign-ups occur on our website. Spots and times are limited, so not everyone who signs up will be selected. Here is the link: https://www.slumchildren.net/openmic

We’ll share the official performer list the week of the event on the Monday of via Instagram and an email blast!

What You Can Share:

• Poetry
• Short stories
• Music

All pieces must be age-appropriate and respectful—no promotion of violence, racism, sexism, or hate of any kind. This is a space to elevate, not tear down.

For Everyone Attending:
This is a free event. Pull up, bring people, be present.

We do ask that you:

• Support the cafe
• Donate if you can

Everything goes back into making nights like this possible and supporting the team behind it.

We will have signed CDs of the mixtape that started this whole movement, and other merch available!

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
