Our Mission
“We’re on a mission to build a new mainstream shaped by Africa’s culture, stories and emerging brands. We will realise our mission by educating the world about Africa(ns) through content and experiences brought to life in a manner that resonates.” – Founder
We believe Africa’s culture and stories are its most valuable asset. But despite the growing consumption of African music, fashion and entertainment by the global mainstream, there are still negative and incomplete perceptions of Africa(ns). We believe having new African perspectives in the mainstream will change the continent's image for the better. Thank you for supporting our mission!
