Quick Facts:
R3ign Drops, a prominent figure in the East African club scene and part of the Nyege Nyege OG, has been a key player since 2019, bringing her high-energy Afro sound to clubs and festivals across Europe. As co-founder of the Afro Femme Collective Dope Gal, she has been instrumental in amplifying marginalized voices from the African continent and celebrating its rich musical diversity. Her DJ sets are a reflection of this commitment, blending genres to create a vibrant and eclectic sound that resonates with audiences worldwide.
As one half of the electrifying duo Black Sistarz, alongside Catu Diosis, and part of the daring project MWOYO with Hibotep, R3ign Drops thrives on creativity and collaboration. Her ability to seamlessly shift between genres makes her just as comfortable opening for legendary acts like Black Coffee in Ibiza as she is shutting down a Nyege Nyege party at peaktime in a gritty Kampala club. She brings a unique energy to every set, crafting immersive journeys through different musical landscapes.
Three relevant works from the last 5 years of artistic practice:
- ENDLESS TRIP - This was my very first solo project and, I started working on it in 2020 during the COVID-19 lockdown.
- SIREN'S GRIMOIRE: This is my first EP and it invites you to explore uncharted realms of feeling, where the boundaries between reality and dream blur.
- DOPE GAL WORKSHOP IN COLOGNE - This was a DOPE GAL open workshop geared at teaching Djing & production skills to interested female and femme upcoming artists.
