| Emcees 4 P.E.A.C.E.  Mission: Emcees 4 P.E.A.C.E. (MCz4P) is a worldwide coalition of Hip-Hop, spoken word, poetical, lyrical, and instrumental Artists. Our mission is to educate, raise awareness, inspire action, promote peace and unity, and spread p.e.a.c.e., truth, love, light, and consciousness through Hip-Hop, music, culture and the arts to create positive social, environmental, economical, political, and societal changes, globally.
Our purpose is to bring artists from around the world together for peace, truth, justice, equality, unity, and the freedoms and rights of the people. We want to get these artists working with each other involving their artistries with activism and advocacy, becoming Artivists, and utilizing that to reach out, Edutain, empower, and inspire the people in their communities to stand up, speak out and take action! These Artivists will work and build as ONE united force/movement to fight, stand against, and stop the negativity, injustice, oppression, tyranny, corruption, war, deceit, inequality, violence, degradation, deprivation of knowledge, poverty, famine, strife, economic disparity, malice, human conflict, the dys-education, narcissism, and all other detrimental diseases being perpetrated, unleashed, and perpetually subjected unto Our people. Through the unison of these diverse Ativists who can relate to the people in their communities because of their ability to reach out and engage minds and because of Hip-Hop‘s relevance to everyday life, MCz4P hopes to establish an educational, inspirational, and spiritually uplifting organization that will work to preserve the true culture of Hip-Hop, unite the people regardless of their diversities, educate the youth worldwide on truth, respect and acceptance, establish the true positive perception of Hip-Hop while getting people to recognize its universality and realize the changes such a Movement can bring, and to eventually heal the wounds, evolve mindsets, and bring the Revolution! Established in 2007, the organization has become a movement of over 300 artists and continues to build with artists from all walks of life. One goal of the organization is to get the positive, reality-conscious, meaningful, and substance-filled music of the so-called “underground’’ above the surface and balanced with the corporate-controlled music industry. By uniting totally independent artists from all parts of the world, we hope to rize up from beneath the surface and spread the realness and righteousness being spoken and vocalized on the underground level to the forefront of the ‘’’music-world.’’ What is being subjected by the billion dollar-industry is a message of nothing more than music as entertainment and only distributing what sells. Now, one of the largest money making schemes, the corporate and record executives don’t seem to mind that the music they are promoting, the messages they are subjecting and the images they are portraying unto the people through various forms of media, fashion, and the like, are very detrimental to the mental health and respect of one’s self. Emcees For P.E.A.C.E. is building national collectives of artists who want to be equally represented in the music industry and not discriminated against based on their content and culture, as well as working towards eradicating the negative image of Hip-Hop being portrayed by the industry. What is Peace / P.E.A.C.E.? - The absence of war or hostilities
- Freedom from quarrels, disorder, and disagreement; harmonious relations between people
- Inner contentment, calmness, serenity; a state of tranquility
- Free from strife
- Residing in the midst of noise, trouble, and hard work but remaining calm at heart
All the artists united with MCz4P are strong believers that peace should and can exist! Through their art forms they fight for and promote peace and unity. Peace can only exist if the people on the planet co-exist regardless of their diversities and differences. One of the many acronyms that defines P.E.A.C.E. for the Movement is: People on Earth Actively Co-Existing, by using positive arts and music to reach out to the masses, we feel we can spread the message of not only peace between one another but peace within one’s self, co-existence and acceptance of others to create a state of everlasting peace on Earth. We must realize that we are all interconnected, we are all One (one race, one world) and that we are all interdependent on one another. Once you overstand that the barriers and divisions keeping us conformed and confined will be eradicated. Peace comes from the love that you spread and the light you shed. What is your definition of peace? We all have our own but they, just like our beings and spirits, are connected. How can we gain external peace when there is so much hate, war, quarrel, strife, and suffering? Free your mind, separate yourself from material and worldly distractions, make love, be graceful, gain internal peace while being in the presence of those infectionz, evolve your mindset in positive ways, be and love yourself and those around you, and "be the change you wish to see in the world." The perseverance and security of your inner-peace will be contagious to all those around you. Music is the instrument of peace as well as the universal language because most all people regardless of their cultures and customs listen or practice music. The Emcees For P.E.A.C.E. strive to educate through their music, with the focus being the youth a.k.a. the future of the world a.k.a. Intelligence. With messages of consciousness and benevolence brewing from original and free thought, we have the ability to reach, move and empower the minds of the youth. Call this Movement or act, P.E.A.C.E., or Positive Edutainment Activating Conscious Elevation. For the People: The Emcees For P.E.A.C.E. are for the people. e do what we do because we love what we do and what we do is who we are. The Movement was founded by artists, for artists, and for the people, which means we are bringing substance and consciousness through music into every atmosphere. Music for the people means providing them something they can feel and grow from. Our music is freedom for the people, fire for the people, peace for the people, and justice for the people, because our music is by the People.
