BLESSED Presents Aussie Blackstar

Overview

One of the most influential artists on the Australian hip hop scene of the last five years, BLESSED is taking to the Sydney Opera House as part of Vivid Sydney for a night of genre-blending performance that he's titled Aussie Blackstar.

The Ghanaian-born Sydney-based artist has worked with the likes of Milan Ring, Manu Crooks, Amaarae and Maina Doe. He even produced now-global superstar The Kid Laroi's breakout EP 14 With a Dream when Laroi was still in his early teen years.

Along with performing cuts from his debut album Aussie Blackstar — which is set to be released via Matt Corby's Rainbow Valley Records on Friday, June 3 — BLESSED has pulled together an all-star roster of hip hop and RnB favourites. He'll be joined on the night by Baby Prince, Chirine, Maina Doe, Manu Crooks, Matt Black and the mysterious hip hop collective BBGB who will be making their Australian debut at the show.
