- Léa Mondo on Decolonizing Creativity Through Song
Léa Mondo is creating music through a bilingual buffet of Lingala and English, fusing high life, soul, jazz, rock and funk. Forever using her music to deliver messages that challenge the government, slavery, and racism, band, Léa casts a spell through her multidimensional, upbeat sound. Having seen Léa perform with her band, Léa and the Sunflowers, we were hungry to learn more about the political nature of her music. As well as the collective 'Peng Femme Jamm' that she co-founded with two friends last year.
Tune into this episode to hear Léa discuss the creative path that led her to music, with our host Bx Sassy. The duo discusses the reality of struggling with body dysmorphia and how to build a road to self-confidence. While unpicking the inequalities that Léa is intent on changing through education, music, and maternal instincts.
Accompanying this conversation are tracks from Léa and the Sunflowers, Noutéka Collective, and Rakia Traore. For more information visit thesassyshow.com
