About Me
I am Felipe "Flip" Emenekwum, a Brazilian musician, singer, and composer. I have hardcore and hip-hop bands, and I also work as a DJ. I am the son of a Nigerian father, born in São Paulo, and passionate about Brazilian street culture. My work aims to include the periphery in the cultural scene. I am also one of the founders of BlackChain, a storytelling project in the Nouns community.

Musical Style
I work with different musical styles in parallel projects, mainly hardcore and hip-hop, as well as DJing. I always seek to integrate audiences from one musical style into another, creating bridges between different scenes and communities.
Public Performance Plan
I commit to delivering at least 1 event monthly, either with a band or DJing. I already have shows scheduled for:
- March 8 in Piracicaba (SP) with my hardcore band
- March 21 in São Paulo
In months when I don't have scheduled shows with my bands, I will hold DJing events in partnership with a skateshop.
Nounish Integration
During shows and events, I will incorporate visual elements of Nouns through:
- Distribution of Noggles stickers to the audience
- Wearing t-shirts with Noggles prints during performances
- QR codes on stickers that lead to the Nouns and Flows websites
- Dedicated moment during the show to briefly explain about Nouns and web3
- Social media promotion mentioning the support from the Nouns community
These visual elements will serve as a starting point for conversations about web3 and the Nouns community, helping to introduce these concepts to new audiences.
Experience & Past Performances
I have experience with live performances in various formats and venues. My loyal audience usually follows me regardless of which band I'm playing with, which facilitates the integration of different people and scenes.
In addition to my musical career, I also participate in the BlackChain project, which combines storytelling and web3 through podcasts and documentation of real-world activations, giving me experience in communicating web3 concepts to different audiences.
My goal is to use music as a vehicle to create positive externalities, embrace difference, and teach people about Nouns and cryptocurrencies in an accessible and fun way, especially for peripheral communities that normally don't have access to this knowledge.
