On this episode, I take you inside AFRICON 2025, recorded live at REVOLT Studios Atlanta with Anna from First Gems and Odessa from Reasonings with Odessa. We talk about the energy, panels, and connections that made this year’s AFRICON a powerful experience linking the African and Caribbean diaspora.

From the opening night at The Gathering Spot to inspiring moments featuring David Banner, Tuma Basa, and Shaka Zulu, this conversation highlights how AFRICON Atlanta 2025 brought creators, leaders, and innovators together from across the world. You’ll also hear Odessa’s exclusive interview with Nigerian DJ and cultural icon DJ Obi, who shares the story behind Obi’s House, one of Africa’s most talked-about parties celebrating music, culture, and unity.

“We are not just from Barbados. We’re not Jamaican. We are Africans first.” – Odessa
