In the episode, I speak with Sena Dagadu about her musical journey which began in 2001 in Budapest, Hungary. She shares her early exposure to music with very diverse genres from soul, funk, classics, reggae, opera, hip hop, rnb, and Hungarian contemporary music.

She describes her turning point moment by randomly attending an underground party that had an open mic session, where she had her first performance leading to her joining a recording group that was a big part of the underground Budapest music scene. 

We also talk about;

• Her first album release in the early 2000s
• Joining the Gimmeshot Crew that ran a weekly dancehall, hip-hop night in a local Budapest club
• Helping start bless the mic in Accra which a becoming a platform for the developing Ghanaian music scene
