To celebrate its achievements over the last ten years, brap brought together some of the region’s best-loved musicians and poets for a fun-filled night of the best spoken word and two-tone music.

The anniversary party, held on Saturday 20 September 2008 at the Hare and Hounds, was headlined by the Special Beat, featuring Neville Staple and Birmingham-born Ranking Roger. Also appearing on the night was award-winning poet Dreadlock Alien.
