Queen Dem brings together a global selection of all powerful, maverick female artists, all creating new musical forms and re-writing the rules of expression to educate, entertain and empower.
From Lagos to Brooklyn, London to Hong Kong, these artists’ widely diverse music is connected through an all-encompassing self-awareness of both self and musical identity and a collective fierceness in attitude. Queen Dem features multi-talented artists, writing, singing, producing, creating new genres of sound. This album offers a snapshot of the current writing of musical history by women who embody confidence and conviction in their art – whether they are firmly-established artists such as Yaya Bey, Yaeji, Dizzy Fae, Sudan Archives, COUCOU CHLOE and Georgia Anne Muldrow or under the radar rising stars such as Queenie, Aunty Rayzor, Vanessa Tha Finessa, MC Yallah or Nira.
