The Notting Hill Academy of Music (NHAM) Cypher brought together some of London’s most exciting young talent for a night of raw bars, live beats, and pure creative energy. Here’s a look back at how it went down.

The NHAM opened its doors for another unmissable Music Cypher, and the energy was exactly what you’d expect from a room full of the capital’s next generation of artists. From freestyle bars to original beats, the cypher gave young performers a real platform to showcase their skills in front of an audience that gets it!
Events like this are exactly why NHAM exists. Since 2015, the Academy has been giving aspiring songwriters, beat makers and music entrepreneurs a genuine route into the industry, with courses backed by names like Sony Music, Warner Music and Relentless Records – and now delivered in partnership with BIMM University. Students don’t just learn theory, they train inside a real, working venue and get direct access to the people shaping the music industry today.
If you’re serious about turning your talent into a career, whether that’s on the mic, behind the boards or on the business side NHAM’s open days run monthly and are the easiest way to find out if it’s the right fit for you.
