An Afro Future is Sampa the Great's triumphant return to Melbourne, her first show in her one-time hometown in over two years. Delayed more than a year by the pandemic, An Afro Future's Melbourne debut at RISING sees the visionary rapper return from Zambia with a new live band of musicians in tow, to expand on her ARIA Award-winning 2019 album The Return.
Sampa is joined by Zimbabwe-born, London-raised and Melbourne-based singer Kye (the two previously collaborated on Kye's single 'Gold'); and her sister Mwanjè, a remarkable, rising neo-soul talent in her own right. DJing on the night is Naarm / Melbourne's own C.Frim.
