Music has power. Power to inspire, power to explain, power to effect change. Rapper and musician Sampa the Great knows this only too well.

She uses her unique mix of hip hop, roots and soul to convey messages of equality and, in turn, is inspired by the places in which she has lived.

None more so than Melbourne.

Though she has now moved back to her childhood home of Zambia, she spent the pivotal years of her career here. Our cover story looks at the city’s influence on her as a burgeoning recording artist, and how she and others new to Melbourne bonded over shared experiences. ●

A lot on his plate FOOD Adam Liaw

on why he can’t stand a bland life.

A

dam Liaw often thought it was a bit “frivolous” to like food as much as he does.

“There are so many other things, like classical music. Food is kind of a little bit pedestrian, and sometimes I feel like maybe it’s not as important as I seem to think,” Liaw says.

But when the MasterChef 2010 winner started work on his new seven-part Audible podcast, How Taste Changed the World, his eyes were opened to how important our relationship with food really is.

“I found out why I like having a glass of red wine with a steak,” Liaw says. “Or why is the only time I drink soft drinks when I’m eating yum cha and having dumplings? As soon as you hear about the fattiness and astringency and the nature of ‘mouth feel’, it explains so much about why we like certain things together.

“And tropes like expectant mothers craving pickles and ice cream? It sounds like a joke, but our sense of taste has a purpose. The pickles add fermented food to your system, and the ice cream gives you calories that you need to produce another human. It makes evolutionary sense.”

How Taste Changed the World includes interviews with food notables, such as chef Yotam Ottolenghi and writer Fuchsia Dunlop. It delves into topics such as sugar’s effect on civilisation, or how the future might influence what we eat.

Each element of taste – sweet, sour, bitter, salt, sour and umami – gets its own episode, “and that understanding of taste and how important it was to making food taste good was truly like an epiphany for me”, Liaw says.

In one of the episodes, he and Ottolenghi discuss what they have by their stove and how those condiments or spices give a glimpse of who they are as people. “What we choose to eat and how much importance we put on food does tell an awful lot about us.”

Not that he’s judgemental about it; he can’t afford to be a culinary snob when, he says, “I consider myself to be an average cook ... the major difference with me is that I probably have a broader repertoire than most people at home. I put my meals up on Instagram every night; they’re no secret, and they’re not particularly fancy either.”

Wo r d s

Fun fact: his two kids prefer his wife’s cooking.

“I can be a little experimental at times.” Liaw says.

“I try to increase the level of spice to give them a little bit of appreciation for it, and sometimes I turn it up a little bit too much!”

A gobsmackingly ambitious overachiever – he holds science and law degrees from the University of Adelaide and worked as a lawyer before entering MasterChef – Liaw now juggles various cookbook author and TV commitments, including appearing as a panellist in the latest season of ABC’s Tomorrow Tonight.

“I do crave the variety of being able to do different things. That’s just my nature. Every show I do is different and shows a different side of my personality,” he says.

The podcast allowed him to appreciate food even more, particularly the way that it brings people together. “Hearing how much the scientists and chefs talked about the conviviality of food and sharing a meal and how important that is – that was really fascinating to me. Our taste is the ultimate oral history.” ●

Great inspirations COVER STORY Globetrotting rapper Sampa the Great comes back

to her musical home, Melbourne, for Rising Festival.

S

he has been dubbed the wake-up call Australia needed, raising awareness on diversity, race and politics through rap and her magnetic poetic persuasion. Zambiaborn and Botswana-raised rapper Sampa Tembo, who goes by the stage name of Sampa the Great, won the prestigious Australian Music Prize twice (the first to do so) and scored a few ARIAs for her album The Return in 2019.

This year she made her debut at Coachella and has just released a song with US rapper Denzel Curry.

Tembo moved to Australia in 2013, originally to Sydney, but moved to Melbourne after a trip here to see a gig at The Evelyn in Fitzroy.

“One of the things that drew me to Melbourne was its people’s courage and openness to talk about things that maybe would be hard to talk about,” Tembo says.

“People say what they have to say, and I love that atmosphere because it allows everyone to have a conversation and grow. I think that is forever Melbourne.”

Tembo recorded 2017’s Birds and the BEE9 in Melbourne, and moved here in 2018. She has since moved back to Zambia, but while living here she created music with like-minded musicians who had similar migration backstories.

“Being in places where their families aren’t from is what bonded us; we are the diaspora and it’s something I take with me wherever I go.”

As a black African woman, she uses her voice to raise awareness through song, writing tracks that also challenge the perception that rap is a bloke’s terrain.

Her latest single, Lane, certainly challenges that assumption of gender and identity.

“A lot of artists from Melbourne are in and all over those two records,” Tembo says, reflecting on the releases that changed her life.

“Coming to Melbourne was all about creating a new home, but what is home? The more I travel, I know home isn’t just defined by a place, it’s connecting to people.”

A younger Tembo moved to California at age 19 to try her luck, but found her time there a confronting one. It exposed her to what it was really like to be an African woman living there.

“When I was in Melbourne, a lot of people I was making music with weren’t from their ancestral place, but we were all able to create a safe space for each other,” she says.

“I knew I could grow musically if I moved to Melbourne – and I did.”

But it also took being away from her immediate family in Zambia to help her realise the importance of her African roots and acknowledge it through song – at times in her parents’ languages. Her mother speaks Bemba and her father speaks Tumbuka.

“My Dad got COVID, which was a huge family scare, and it was one of those things where I wanted to go back home and see my family,” she says.

She had a deep longing to be home and it meant she’s been able to slow down, sit with them and do things she hadn’t been able to do before.

“This is the first time I can drive around my hometown, to see it with different eyes.”

She says she’s been able to work with Zambian artists since moving back there, which was something she had never done before.

“There is more a sense of belonging, which is what I was trying to feel when I was in Australia for a long time,” she says.

“I have never been, in this part of my life, connecting with my country and it’s amazing.”

Sampa the Great returns to Melbourne this month for Rising Festival, where audiences will experience her mix of African heritage and rap in a visual feast of song and dance.

Ph o t o

A ART VERRIPS

According to Rising Festival music programmer Woody McDonald, having Sampa the Great join the festival is a moment he’s been waiting for – he booked her two years ago but COVID cut the winter arts and music festival short after opening night.

“The first time I booked Sampa she had only played a handful of shows. She was ready for a big stage from the get-go,” McDonald says.

“She returned home to Zambia after a decade living and producing music in the US and Australia.

She has put together a band there and will be bringing it to Melbourne for the first time.

“I like festival programming that tells a story about the city it’s held in. Sampa has strong links to Melbourne and the line-up she’s curated reflects that [such as artists like her sister Mwanje, Melbourne club DJ C.Frim and Melbourne hip hop outfit KYE]. It’s ideal for us.”

The future looks bright for Sampa the Great, but the hardest part is avoiding being pigeonholed.

“I have always struggled with the idea of being an artist stuck in one box,” Tembo says. “When you think of Sampa the Great, you think of hip-hop, but if you look at all of my projects, the majority of it is anything but. I am still growing as an artist and there are some other genres I want to connect to.”

Her new single Lane is a reflection of that crossroad. Collaborating with Denzel Curry was a happy surprise – she first met him when he performed at the Listen Out festival a few years ago in Australia.

“At the time I didn’t think anything of it – a rapper, cool,” she says. “But when he did a Rage Against The Machine cover for Triple J’s Like a Version I thought, this artist has rage!

“This is what I was able to appreciate, and we’re both in the same shoes as artists right now – trying to express ourselves in various ways.” ● ● rising.melbourne/festival-program
