MusicPunk in the Place

afropunk mixtape #58: punk in the place

October 7, 2019

Not that it’s news, but punk is more than a genre. It’s an attitude, it’s a way of looking at the world, it’s lived defiance. It’s everything we are. This month, we’re featuring artists who are bringing that defiance into new spaces. Artists like Denzel Curry, Danny Brown, Leikeli47, Princess Nokia, Troi Irons, and the Nova Twins. Artists who are unapologetic, confrontational, and proudly defiant.

Oh, and while we’re here: Impeach the MF.
