PROFESSOR ELEMENTAL

Hello there, thanks for stopping by. I’m Professor Elemental, award winning Steam Powered Hip Hop emcee, former teacher and all round entertainer.

I’m mostly known for ridiculous videos like this, exuberant live shows and a series of award winning albums, (with producer Tom Caruana)

THE CAMPAIGN

As an ex teacher and a performer, I’m only too aware of how upsetting bullies and internet trolls can be, so I thought I’d make a song to promote positivity on the internet and show people that they aren’t alone. It’s called 'Don't feed the trolls' and it's gone down well at shows all around the world this year.  

Inevitably, as an independent musician, it comes down to the money and time to do it justice….Then I had a brainwave- what if we raised the funds through a campaign, gave away a ton of super prizes  and then gave any extra money to local youth charities?

After we have reached our goals to create the video, any further cash will be split between The Brighton Young People’s centre, Audioactive and Ditch the Label. Each organisation is superb in its own right and all three of them help to give local young people a voice. There’s information about each charity linked below.

Ditch The Labelhttp://www.ditchthelabel.org/

Audioactivewww.audioactive.org.uk

The Young People’s Centrehttp://impact-initiatives.org.uk/young-peoples-centre/

The video itself will be a beautiful, bright and shiny thing which will show to  the world how to stand up to bullies and how to make the world a sunnier place. Directed by the brilliant Caroline Ianoli, it will feature cameos from some brilliant artists and musicians in their own right. Oh and quite possibly, YOU.

WHY SHOULD I GET INVOLVED?

As if the chance to help create something lovely and give to charity weren’t enough, I am also giving away loads of prizes and exclusive goodies that will only be available for this campaign. They include beautiful exclusive prints by some of comicdom's finest artists, signed pith helmets, and bespoke raps, exclusive music and much more. I’m even giving away my original fighting trousers to the highest bidder! 

Oh and if you bid over £50 you are also welcome to join us on the day of the filming and can have a cameo appearance in the video. So then, what are you waiting for? Come and join the party!

A very VERY big thank you for your support and for taking the time to check out the campaign, it makes all the difference.

I’D LOVE TO HELP, BUT I SIMPLY DON’T HAVE A PENNY TO MY NAME.

Never fear! Whether you are able to support us financially or not, you can still be a tremendous help to us by spreading the word on this campaign via Facebook and twitter. My whole career to date has been based on the kindness of people sharing my music and videos, and this is no exception. Please share a link to this campaign and tell your friends. It really does make all the difference in the world.
