CREATEATL | 900 Murphy Avenue Southwest Atlanta, GA, 30310
Soul Food Cypher presents One Hundred, a monthly freestyle cypher event that features Atlanta’s top freestyle emcees and lyricist for an unforgettable cypher every 4th Sunday.
One Hundred showcases the improvisational dexterity of true emcees through challenging and engaging freestyle rounds. Of course; no Cypher would be complete without our infamous WordPlay segment where emcees freestyle based on the displayed random word. We take it a step further than rap, by holding space for important community conversations about the culture and our community.
One Hundred is where tradition continues and tomorrows legends are made.
