World Afrika Tour, Lover Girl Era & Diaspora Season with RIMON

About this episode

The episode features a live conversation with RIMON about her performance in Ethiopia and her artistic journey.

This year’s first episode is a special one — recorded live in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, with the incredible RIMON , the Netherlands-based, Eritrean-born global artist, during her first-ever performance in Ethiopia at the World Afrika Festival. We talk about what that moment meant to her, the evolution of her sound, and navigating self-doubt as an artist. We also dive into what her lover girl era looks like and whether you can really find love during diaspora season in Ethiopia!
