NEGRESS is a platform that uplifts black femme, women and gender nonconforming artists. Swim in the sounds and spirit of local and international open format djs, producers, and recording artists. The spectrum of genres featured includes r&b, house, club, techno, ballroom, vogue, baile funk, afrobeat, gcom, jungle, and UK garage. We value a DIY approach to music and lift up emerging talent without the clout. NEGRESS (IG: @negressworld) puts on a monthly event called HOOD RAVE, a local South Central underground party centering black femme talent and a black, indigenous and QTIPOC audience.
