Earlier this year, Michael Kiwanuka and the legendary Nas collaborated to soundtrack Baz Luhrmann’s new Netflix drama series, The Get Down. Nas, the narrator of the series, draped his vocals over two of Kiwanuka’s tracks: ‘Rule The World’ and ‘Black Man In A White World’ for the show. Australian film director Baz Luhrmann is an avid fan of Kiwanuka’s music, inviting him to perform at The Get Down’s media launch in London, where he referred to Kiwanuka as a ‘genius’.
Michael Kiwanuka is an authentic artist with soul and grit, his beautiful voice and charm will warm all of our souls once more in 2017.
