Yasmin Vince catches up with the artist putting masc rep centerstage
Who else has had Nxdia’s hit track She Likes A Boy stuck in their head all year? You’re not alone. The non-binary Egyptian-Sudanese musician has taken the internet by storm with their latest tracks, all putting LGBTQIA representation at the forefront.
Digital Writer and Content Creator Yasmin Vince caught up with Nxdia to find out all about their stratospheric rise to fame, representation and why we need to continue taking up space. You can read our full interview with Nxdia in our April/May issue, available to order now on divadirect.info.
For now, here’s a teaser of what they had to say…
On being authentic in their music: “I just want to be so unafraid. I would rather live my life without regret, knowing I’ve said everything that I wanted”
On expressing themselves: “I need to stop asking for permission to do things”
On the power of music for change: “We have enough anger behind us and I think it unites people in a way that nothing else does”
