First Gen: Australia

Using their unique perspective to speak to both everyday experiences and societal issues, African Australians like Sampa The Great, Tinomatic and Tkay Maidza lead the way for a new generation of younger artists, challenging the disparaging stigmas mainstream media often attaches to African youth in the country. Their music creates a sense of community, and gives them space to tell their unique stories. With First Gen, we celebrate African-Australian artists who bridge cultures and use their hybrid identity to create new sonic fusions—including hits from Manu Crooks, B Wise, Mike Akox, Kinder, Geneisis Owusu, and more.
