Music in Space: From Johannesburg to Kampala, London, and New York — Hip-Hop Without Borders

February 19, 2026 3

Music never sleeps. From Kampala to Kingston, Lagos to Accra, every street tells a story, every city its flow. Across continents, a global conversation emerges — sharp bars, clever punchlines, voices that resonate worldwide.

Bjorn Vido and the Music in Space Experience, led by Danish filmmaker and musician Bjørn Vidø and South African producer Kgomotso Gobeni, have been capturing hip-hop from 18 countries — moments where beats and stories collide.

The African chapter is electric: LeeMcKrazy, Sir Trill, and Touchline bring Johannesburg grit; HoneyBee Rapstar holds it down in Durban; Vampino represents Kampala; Bushali delivers Rwandan energy. International voices like Mr Drew (Ghana), Sapphire (Jamaica), Honey-B-Sweet (Australia), and Fega Michaels (Nigeria) add their unique accents — different styles, same respect for craft and storytelling.

From freestyles to studio sessions, the project captures hip-hop’s heartbeat: restless, vibrant, borderless.

The triple album brings it together:
• The Overview — cinematic storytelling with European and American flair.
• Astronaut in Africa — Amapiano, 3Step, Afrobeat; the cutting-edge African sound.
• The Remixes — global DJs and producers taking the energy to clubs and festivals.
