Rina Sawayama has been referred to as ‘the way forward for queer pop music’.
The Japanese-British singer speaks to the BBC’s gender and identification correspondent Meghan Mohan about her frustrations with the music trade, how her sexuality informs her artwork and rising up with racism within the UK.
She additionally reveals, for the primary time, the deeply private and devastating inspiration behind her album.
In Dialog is a collaboration between BBC Three and the BBC World Service.
