Introducing Bantu: The African Creative Podcast, a brand new show for the African creative community. We tell the stories of talented Africans and try to sift through our weird relationship with brands, the media and creative organizations. Underneath all that its about how we tell our own story, and being real about how we feel about it. Bantu is a uniquely African word; it means "people". Design & art people, media people, brand people. It's all Bantu. *** Music produced by Jugganut *** Follow us: @studioblvck - Instagram @studioblvck_ - Twitter --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/wavyroom/message
