Scene awards for Swiss rappers
With "Lyric", the Swiss rap scene has a scene magazine that is now awarding an "Urban Music Prize" for the third time. Votes can be cast online.
The upswing in Swiss hip-hop was more noticeable in 2017 than ever before, write the makers of "Lyrics". Nevertheless, the genre is still fighting for acceptance and recognition - both in the local music industry and in society.
The awards are intended to recognize outstanding musical creation "in order to set an example for the entire music scene". In addition, the appreciation and ideology that progress can only be made together should be emphasized and developed in the hip-hop industry.
According to its self-definition, "Lyrics" is "the largest and most relevant urban medium in Switzerland". The hip-hop community in Switzerland discusses, informs and converses on its platforms - the print magazine, the website and the social media channels.
