MUMBAI: MTV World will be launching the second season of its Rebel Music series, the thought provoking documentary project about young musicians and artists overcoming oppression and injustice around the world.
The series will premiere on 30 April on MTV’s YouTube channel. Additionally, MTV World will partner with Amnesty International to disperse the Rebel Music message and help viewers take action for positive change through the organisation’s Art for Amnesty program.
One country at a time, Rebel Music shares the untold stories of fearless young artists rising up against social and political barriers to forge a better future. Launched in 2013 and now in its second six part season, Rebel Music shines a light on young people around the globe who are rarely given a chance to speak for themselves, activating the power of music and art to connect, inspire and ignite action. The series will provide young American audiences a rare, unprecedented look into the lives of their counterparts in countries experiencing crises.
“We live in an increasingly connected global community and young people in America are more interested and engaged in the state of the world than ever before. We are proud to present a fresh new perspective on important regions of the world through compelling stories of their youth – bridging the gap in knowledge and hopefully creating more understanding and compassion,” MTV World general manager and senior vice president and creator and executive producer of the Rebel Music series Nusrat Durrani.
In season one, Rebel Music journeyed deep into the heart of revolutionary music in Egypt, Afghanistan, Mali, Mexico, and Israel and Palestine. Buoyed by the success of the first Rebel Music: Native America premiere last November, which became one of MTV’s top most viewed and most shared videos of all time, and an invitation to screen at the White House, the series continues to innovate and bring new untold stories to the forefront.
