Consensus, the prolific UK science rapper and musician, has been weaving the profound concepts of physics into the rhythmic tapestry of rap music. Since 2015, he has engaged with our community, culminating in the creation of a comprehensive album delving into the world of particle physics – aptly named "conCERNed."

His commitment to educational outreach has been exemplary, as he actively participated in numerous rap workshops aimed at igniting the curiosity of young minds with the wonders of fundamental science through the medium of rap music. His impact was so significant that he earned a prestigious STFC grant in the UK to further develop educational materials tailored for teachers.

Now, pushing the boundaries of scientific rap, ConScience has emerged as his latest album, expanding the horizons of particle physics. This masterful collection explores captivating subjects such as gravitational waves observed by LIGO, the enigmatic world of neutrino physics in DUNE, and the mysteries lurking beneath the IceCube experiment. ConScience, an original creation, promises to engage and educate, fusing the art of rap with the science of the universe.
