Not all giants are big and friendly, soft and cuddly. Certainly not this fat rat king: the devourer who survives by eating his own kind. He is made of metal and alloys. Of governments. Filled with bullets and ideals. He is controlled from afar by someone who does not want to see the bloodshed live. Some giants fly, some crawl. Some seek your warmth to detonate near you. They pierce you with their ideals. And we have one in our grasp. Strange but true. We have a big one. And he is not easily caught. But we are many.
'FAT BOY' is performance, spoken word, rap, slam, and struggle. Words like bullets, rhyme as resistance, togetherness and a new imagination as an antidote. Young Gewei drags the rat king from the underground to the heart of Ghent. We challenge you to listen to words that burn on the lips of a new generation. What keeps them awake at night? And you? Who or what is your rat king?
