The next edition of We Out Here Festival: It Takes A Village weekly radio series is here. A show paving the road to the festival, connecting artists from across the line up.
For this episode, Sampa The Great contributes an hour of radio reflecting on the theme "It Takes A Village" ahead of We Out Here Festival 2026. Through conversation and carefully selected music, she shares meditations on a life and career shaped by migration, carrying forward a musical legacy deeply rooted in family, home, and Zambia.
A globally celebrated Zambian-born rapper, singer, and visionary, Sampa The Great has built a creative path that bridges continents, cultures, and generations, and continues to blend personal storytelling with a powerful sense of identity and purpose.
Comprised of interview extracts recorded remotely, the show reflects on pivotal moments in her journey, the mentors who helped shape her path, and the intrinsic collectivism at the heart of creativity. A thoughtful exploration of how artistry can serve not only the self, but the wider communities it touches.
Where voices connect and communities grow, culture is almost always built together…
