For today's show, I interview Zambian Montreal-based rapper and producer, Ashanti Mu-tin-ta, known by their stage-name BACKXWASH here at CKCU FM.
BACKXWASH is a trans rapper from Zambia whose music provides an eccentric and aggressive social commentary. Topics include blackness and queerness, as they strive to bring an intersectional perspective. Inspired by Missy Elliot and Redman, backxwash is known for their complex lyrcism on weird instrumentals.
