Description
Shy, queer and ethnic, Melbourne rapper Sophiya never believed she could have a career in music. A self described misfit, she pushed herself to create a rap persona of the person she wanted to be - and a representative for others who felt the same way. In this episode of Behind the Bars, we hear about Sophiya's inspiring journey. From a kid with a speech impediment to a strong, commanding artist who uses catchy and colourful wordplay to manifest confidence and self belief.
