Seville Hiphop

6:12 pm Travel

Traveling in southern Spain has an appeal that speaks to legendary and romantic ideas of what touring the world is all about.  Seville is one of those cities that can live up to its myth, and even surpass it, with its remarkable atmosphere and sense of style.  There are many brilliant things about the city which are immediately apparent when setting foot in Seville.  Hotels are abundant, and quite splendid, and there are plenty of restaurants, cafes, and shops that are waiting for exploration.  There are also remarkable architectural masterpieces here, and it’s very difficult to spend any time in the city without feeling as though you’re falling in love.  It has a metropolitan heartbeat that speaks to centuries of cultural evolutions, and there are many styles, sensibilities, and worlds that exist here simultaneously.

It is a splendid place to go and soak up the energy of a very vibrant and exciting city, and also a perfect place for a romantic getaway.  It’s one of the most coveted destinations, offering all the wonderful things that tourists look for when seeing a new place for the first time.  For repeat visitors, it is perhaps even more exciting, as it is a city that is in constant change, with new artistic visions constantly moving in, adding to the fabric of the place.  Youth culture is refreshingly active here, and it’s hard not to notice that hiphop culture is huge in Seville.

There is a lively street culture, with graffiti, break dancing, and musical improvisations everywhere, and a host of live events that happen every night.  Spain has always been one of the premiere markets for hiphop generally, and Seville is one of its main centers.  It’s important to note here that in Spain, it’s a little different than in the U.S., and hiphop here is much less focused on material culture, and more focused on making positive social change.  Hiphop is a forum for free expression, and there is a magnificent energy at events like Territorios Sevilla, where musical styles from African and Spain are on display, and the city responds to the rhythm with a stunning beat that is all their own.
