Join us for an evening of provocative conversation, video, and live music as we celebrate the launch of National Geographic Emerging Explorers' Sol Guy and Josh Thome's TV series 4REAL on the new Nat Geo Wild and Nat Geo Music channels, debuting overseas this spring.
4REAL takes high profile U.S. actors such as Cameron Diaz and Casey Affleck and musicians such as M.I.A. and Flea on a global journey, connecting them with innovative young changemakers who are using art and culture to radically effect positive change in their communities.
In one episode musical artist and actor Mos Def visits the infamous favela “City of God” on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro where he meets up with Brazil’s top hip-hop artist and resident MV Bill, whose music, videos, and documentaries expose the harsh realities of life in the favelas and deliver an uncompromising call for social justice.
The event will feature a live performance by MV Bill, clips from 4REAL, and a panel discussion with the filmmakers and MV Bill, moderated by legendary hip-hop artist Chuck D (Public Enemy).
