Temi DollFace: Grandma’s Style Lessons (Seismographic Sounds)

Nigerian singer Temi DollFace finds herself on a «one-woman mission to put the theatrics back into live music». In the podcast she talks about fashion, being a female artist in Nigeria, the influence of her grand mother, and the gap between critical acclaim and mainstream chart success. Finally she comments on her music video «Pata Pata», a parody on materialist desires of the «perfect house wife» as shown in 1950s television ads. A podcast from the Norient exhibition Seismographic Sounds, produced by Tosyn Bucknor.
