Kingston meets London.

AZADI.mp3 is London’s gothic and fearless future. If her recent EP, Summer in the Crypt, was a statement of intent, then it was a bold one. Subversive RnB and steely sonics back musings on identity and femininity in 2020. She brings her noisy leftist eclecticism to the London Scenery studio.

Gaika is an avid outsider who’s built an entire career out of refusing to be tied to one scene or sound - he straddles dancehall and techno, vogue house and R&B. He’s also a proudly and proactively political Londoner - the perfect artist to hunker down and weather the Brexit storm with. He chats his sound and his city and carries us along on his wave of optimism.
