Hey, it's Paulina and Jess bringing you an exciting interview with the renowned and talented rapper and R&B singer, L.L. Junior. We got to speak to him over Zoom from Budapest about his career, Romani music, how he identifies as a rebel, his musical influences and icons, and more.
You can find L.L. Junior on Instagram at @l.l.junior, on YouTube at lljuniorofficial, and on Spotify. We are delighted that we had permission to use some of his music, including "Fekete Vonat" - Mindent A Szerelemért (Cigányul ) as our intro music, as well as "Korkorro" (Egyedül) and Sostar Dukhal (Miért Fáj)

We started a Ko-fi fundraiser to help us expand. Our goal is to release 2 episodes a month, create video content, like an advice column and other treats, and we would also like to register as a nonprofit so we can produce content by other Romani & Sinti creators. We are hoping to cover production costs, like paying for our hosting site, website, editing and producing, and all the rest. We would love it if you could contribute and spread the word. The link, Ko-fi.com/romanistan, is in our bio on Instagram, and will be in the show notes
