About us

It all began with a simple idea fuelled by a deep passion, frustration & boredom.
Due to the lack of Hip Hop events in the local area we took matters into our own hands,
creating a home for hip hop right here in the North West of England.
No drama, no beefs, no postcode wars just good vibes and dope beats.
Our approach is rooted in quality and integrity, ensuring that everything we do reflects our commitment to excellence.
At Essence, we believe that hip hop is more than just music - it's a reflection of your personality and style expressed through many forms.
Our mission is to provide our customers with live events, premium brand clothing and merchandise that allows them to express themselves confidently.
With a focus on quality, unique designs, and exceptional customer service, we strive to create an unparalleled experience for hip hop enthusiasts,
building an environment that encourages local talent and promotes established artists under the banner of the music we all know and love!
We endeavour to bring you dope events, featuring everything from live DJ's, performances, dancers and artwork.
What would a good hip hop event be without a live cypher? Nothing! So bring your bars to the table and showcase your skills!
The future's BIG kiddaz!
