N’Djamena, Chad
Lowup and HAPE Collective are proud to present this double A-sided EP, an unexpected Afro European collaboration between Tchad based MC FTP and Italian producer, DJ and musician Go Dugong.
Both up-tempo rollers combine the conscious urban swag and ‘francam’ (French Cameroonian) lingo of young Cameroon born and Ndjamena-based MC FTP with Go Dugong’s production mixing traditional African balafon and drumming with thumping Afro-trap beats.
Americas, Africa, Europe
2020 challenged the ways we interact, make and experience music.
It brought obstacles to the cultural connections between Americas, Africa and Europe we feel passionate about.
Yet, we are happy to see that the HAPE family around the globe is alive more than ever, working on new ideas and staying creative.
Technology may have allowed us to stay connected but after the distancing, coming together again will fill the void.
Our journey will continue, and we hope you will continue being part of it.
In the meantime, here are some highlights from 2020!
