King Kapisi is one of the most-well known names in New Zealand music - a leading hip hop artist, MC, producer, DJ and muso.

He’s travelled the world and worked with some of the biggest names; Metallica, Black Eyed Peas and the Red Hot Chilli Peppers. But as he shares in this episode, for a Samoan lad from Wellington, it’s been a bloody tough journey.

King Kapisi shares what it was like coming into the industry when he did and falling out of love with music, the challenges of learning to be kind to himself, and why Maori and Pasifika need a greater voice.
