"We invite everyone – spectators, visitors and locals - to go for gold on the dance floor. It’s exactly how you should finish a party on the Gold Coast," Mr Lifschitz said.
Directed by Laima Leyton (Mixhell/Soulwax), GRRRL features: Mercury Prize winning rapper Speech Debelle; queen of Brazilian dancehall Lei Di Dai; Zimbabwe’s rap queen AWA (African Women Arise); ‘The Young Lioness of Africa’ Wiyaala; South African nu-jazz and folk songstress Nono Nkoane; British Bangladeshi singer Sohini Alam; Caracas DJ and percussionist MABE; and UK/Ghanian electronic artist Afrodeutsche.
