For the first time ever, genre-defying, mainstream-disrupting cultural institution AFROPUNK will team up with NPR Music to present: Tiny Desk Meets AFROPUNK, a kick-off event celebrating AFROPUNK’s newest virtual initiative: “Black Spring.” “Black Spring” combines AFROPUNK’s legacy of inclusion, activism, and highlighting the best new talent in the world with a focus on Afro-Latine and Afro-Caribbean artists and culture for 2021. The Tiny Desk Meets AFROPUNK program will include concerts from ChocQuibTown, Calma Carmona, Luedji Luna, and Nenny, and will be hosted by AFROPUNK vet Jorge “Gitoo” Wright.” Tiny Desk Meets AFROPUNK will premiere on NPR Music’s YouTube channel on Friday, April 23 at 3pm ET.
