This year, Sunlight is taking that deep cultural connection to the next level with ‘Raise The Bar’, a challenge that transforms an everyday icon – the Sunlight green bar – into a platform for young people to express themselves through music and dance. The movement grows beyond rap to include a dynamic dance category.

Legendary collaborators Rouge and MashBeatz – fresh off their hit collaboration, ‘Nobody’ with Nasty C and Usimamane – lead the charge for aspiring rappers, while dance powerhouses Shakes & Les set the rhythm for dancers ready to express themselves and own the stage. Dance duo Shakes & Les, who recently released their new EP ‘Estradini’,  share: “We wanted to create a beat and rhythm that felt powerful and uplifting – something that sparks movement anywhere, from the stage to the street, and lets young people bring their own energy to ‘Raising The Bar.’”
