Embark on a captivating journey with Sunny from SoundRig, as we uncover the power of music to transform lives within the Kokuma refugee camp. Our latest conversation explores the creation of a music studio that serves as a beacon of hope and independence for refugee artists. Together, we tackle the myriad of challenges these artists face, including the unsustainable nature of commuting to far-flung studios and the pressing need for a platform that amplifies their voices beyond the camp's confines. Sunny's insights into SoundRig's role in fostering ownership, skill development, and breaking away from the legacy music industry model underscore the transformative impact of this mission on the artists' lives.

Witness the inspiring alliance between the University of Nairobi and Kokuma camp musicians, culminating in an EP and documentary that echo the soul of music born from adversity. This episode peels back the layers of the 'forever giving tunes' model, showing how NFTs and social media are not just buzzwords but vital tools in marketing and sustaining creative expression. The discussion illuminates the intricacies of setting up a community staking pool, offering a glimpse into a future where studios not only flourish but become a legacy for nurturing talent and ensuring artists' financial empowerment for generations.

Lastly, the episode celebrates the synergy of education, technology, and community, highlighting the partnership between the Cardano Foundation and the University of Nairobi that is forging a new path for blockchain proficiency. We share a vision of a world where music and technology intersect, empowering individuals with verifiable credentials and connecting African rhythms to a global stage.
