With the release of her long-awaited album ‘3’ singer-songwriter Ngaiire is putting her Papua New Guinean roots proudly and defiantly at the front and centre of her music. Ngaiire returns to Stop Everything in a conversation with BW covering music, motherhood, home and breaking free of industry expectations.
BW + BL discuss The Chair, the Netflix show starring Sandra Oh as Dr Ji-Yoon Kim, the first woman of colour to chair the English department at prestigious (and fictional) Pembroke University, and the minor feelings the series engenders.
Also: The Croods enter the pandemic discourse; Kyle MacLachlan’s Aussie accent; will The Wiggles really go broke for going woke?
