Remi Kolawole, the Melbourne MC better known as REMi, is fairly new to the game- though that didn't stop him winning the biggest unsigned band competition in Australia, Triple J Unearthed, last year.

In this interview with Emma Smith, REMi talks about how he came to the rap game, the myriad of influences that inspire his long-ish time producers Sensible J and Dutch, and why it's time to speak up about racial discrimination in Australia.
