SHADES Ep 6: 'Diamonds and Sapphires' with Racerage

In the final episode of SHADES season 1, non-binary and political rapper Racerage opens up about their track 'Diamonds and Sapphires', written during a dark period filled with both physical and mental health issues, as well as the re-discovery of her Indigenous roots. The song is all about the bounce back - a battle call to reclaim space, reject stigma and alchemise pain into positivity. 

The SHADES podcast is an exploration of social issues through the lens of Aussie hip hop music.
