What is Current Mind?

Current Mind is hosted by Nneka Mogbo, founder of Úrú Collective and executive producer of Afrobeats Intelligence and The Joey Akan Experience.

It is a podcast for creators, talent managers, and cultural professionals who want an honest look at what it actually takes to build in the African creative industry. No performance. No highlight reel. Just the real work.

New episodes drop bi-weekly.
