Rosa Ree is a Tanzanian blazing a trail for female rappers. Having experienced bullying and domestic violence as a child, she tells DJ Edu why the bond she shares with her sisters and her mother made her a feminist determined to help African women in their fight for equality.

And, like former TIA guest Rayvanny, she addresses the issue of artistic censorship in Tanzania, detailing how she managed to escape a six-month musical ban handed down by the authorities in her home country.

There is also the 10-in-10 Mix, This Is Africa's weekly pick of the freshest new tracks making waves across the Motherland.
