Feel Good Film Club screening/black music debate

QUAD, Market Place, Derby DE1 3AS, England

Don't know how much this is

Film: Staff Benda Billi documentary about a group of disabled musicians from Africa who have found worldwide success.

Post film discussion: as part of UK Black History Month - "current state of black music debate" will ask: does black music have any musicians coming through who will taste industry success in the future? With rappers and computer focused producers like Dizzee Rascal, Tinie Tempah and Labrinth seeming to dominate, will we see the likes of musicians such as Prince, D'Angelo, Omar, Esperanza Spalding, Fela Kuti or Courtney Pine enjoying musical success again?

Panellists:

  • Corey Mwamba (vibes musician)
  • Rickie Campbell (bass musician)
  • Dan 1 (poet/rapper)
  • Devon Daley (BBC presenter/DJ/radio producer)
  • Lee P (Cultural Critic and ex Arts Editor - Voice paper)
