female rapper

The Catalonian rapper Santa Salut uses a triad of languages to express her emotions. Between radically political and deeply personal, she draws on Oldschool rap influences. In conversation with NBHAP, the 24-year-old talks about her love for rap, the meaning of multilingual art, and mythological sources of inspiration. Catch her live in Berlin on June 16th.

The Berliner festival, XJAZZ!, is known for bending definitions of jazz. Considering it a word of freedom rather than a narrow genre description, its line-up features international artists with different takes on jazz. We spoke to headliner and South Londoner Rapper Nadia Rose about her music and its connection to the genre.
