Dafne Andas

Dafne Andas is the rapper and producer behind the songs “Växer” and “Smarts” and the lesbian album “Crush” from 2020. This year she is back with the album “BOYE”, a tribute to her role model, author Karin Boye (1900-1941).

Andas took her name after a depression in 2014 to remind herself why she makes music – to breathe. Before that, she had been active under several other names since 2003. She is also part of the Upfront Producer Network, a network for women and non-binary people who produce their own music. She also gives workshops on writing rap, focusing on lyrical structure, flow and delivery.

OG Bella

A relative newcomer to the scene, rapper OG Bella has already been nominated for “Best Hiphop/RnB of the Year” by Gaffa. OG Bella likes to play with lyrical contrasts and the relationship between her and language flourishes through melancholy.

OG Bella’s latest EP “MELLAN TVIVEL & TILLIT” is out now. Often atmospheric and dramatic, her music is experimental and transcends genre. In her writing, a common thread is the portrayal of relationships and grief in a poetic and peculiar way.
