Vyva Entertainment

We’ve spent the last decade building something special, a community, a movement, a home for HipHop in Sydney and beyond. Now, we’re stepping into a new era, from one big moment to movement all year long. Over 2025 and 2026, 4E will roll out a series of events and programs. Our first announcement is a collaboration with @afrikaleidoscope , curated by #FungaiMutsiwa and #ChidiebubeUba. 'culdesac, culdesac, culdesac' is a new Hip Hop exhibition and live program taking place at Parramatta Town Hall on 22–23 November 2025. Marking HipHop’s 50th anniversary, the program utilises visual art, film, dance, and performance to explore the culture as philosophy, survival, and resistance. The exhibition offers a critical look at how mainstream narratives have commodified and stripped HipHop of its complexity, demanding recognition for the deep community roots and legacy behind the culture.

It’s been a challenging year or so for me with everything going on in my life - in this world, and my mental health has had its ups and downs, and swimming has become a way to help me reset, focus and to carve out time for myself. Simply to breathe. Now, I’m turning this newfound outlet into something a little more. #Suicide is the leading cause of death for #youngpeople in Australia. More young people lose their lives to suicide than to car accidents or cancer. This March, I’ve been swimming to make sure young people have better access to the mental health support they urgently need. 💙 This is my first time posting here about the #LapsForLife challenge that I’ve been doing but supporting young people has always been at the heart of what I do – whether through music, arts, or HipHop – and this is just another way to make a difference where it’s needed most. I’ve set myself a #goal to swim #10KM this month (I have 2.4km left), and by sponsoring my challenge, you’ll be helping fund better access to life-saving services that give young people hope and help them navigate tough times. If you’re able, please consider donating. Every dollar truly counts. The link to my fundraising page is in my bio or copied from here: .au/fundraisers/vyvienne/laps-for-life-2025
