Rina Sawayama

Rina Sawayama has been called ‘the future of queer pop music’. The Japanese-British singer speaks to the BBC’s gender and identity correspondent Megha Mohan about her frustrations with the music industry, how her sexuality informs her art and growing up with racism in the UK. She also reveals, for the first time, the deeply personal and devastating inspiration behind her album.
