MADANii

Addressing the migrant experience artistically in these times is anything but easy. But when has it ever been? MADANii mobilises her vision of transcultural music with a self-confidence that is awe inspiring and infectious all at the same time. Deeply rooted in Persian culture on the one hand and eclectically exploring influences between art pop, alternative R'n'B and trap on the other, the Berlin genre reformer creates her very own take on modern life as the daughter of refugees in Germany, but also as a woman and an artist. Whether it's an exuberant summery style like in “Dast”, experimental as in the provocative single “Tehran Is Burning” or warm and soulful like ‘FiiRE’, MADANii shapes an unconventional mosaic of styles in which she crosses the autobiographical with the political and spiritual. An artist with great things ahead of her.
