In addition to the live performance, the concert will feature immersive elements inspired by the album’s themes, giving attendees an experience that extends beyond the stage.
Known for bringing together music, culture, history, and activism through her work, Zakiyyah uses her artistry to create space for both reflection and conversation. With African Import, she continues to push creative boundaries while remaining grounded in community, collaboration, and purpose.
