The event features original compositions and an innovative blend of Cape Verdean traditional music styles with hip-hop.
Before the concert, the HipHopHuis will host the conclusion of the Casa di Cabral exhibition, alongside a screening of the documentary In Search of Borboletas, which follows Mendes' cultural journey.
