Sampa The Great – The Return

Sampa the Great’s debut full-length is a lush, ambitious exploration of identity, heritage, and self-empowerment. Across 19 tracks, she weaves together hip-hop, jazz, soul, and African rhythms — backed by a cast including Ecca Vandal, Steam Down, Blue Lab Beats, and Thando.

“a dense and sometimes-challenging record … this is a record about the uncertainty lurking behind every major decision, the doubts that persist even as you tell yourself you're making the right choices.” - Pitchfork

Released in September 2019 on Ninja Tune, The Return won the Australian Music Prize and earned Sampa multiple ARIA Awards.
