Uncover the untold stories behind the music that shaped a generation?


"Red Light Busking presents Kanda Vol.1 – Bedroom Shut, Music Up" is an immersive journey into the sounds, struggles, and resilience of African Caribbean youth navigating life in the early 2000s. This one-of-a-kind exhibition will transport you to a recreated bedroom from the era, telling the story of two brothers—one in school, the other imprisoned. Through music, oral histories, and interactive experiences, you’ll explore themes of youth culture, systemic exclusion, and the transformative power of music as resistance and expression.


  • Here’s what you can expect:
Immersive Soundscapes:

  • Hear the music inspired by real-life stories, created by young artists and professional musicians.


  • Thought-Provoking Experiences: From the “frustration room” to authentic oral histories, delve into the realities of a system that continues to overrepresent African Caribbean youth in the criminal justice system.
