On being cute, chaotic and critical with Amber Akilla

In the heat of summer I made my way to one of my favourite cities in the world, Shanghai to interview one of my favourite all time podcast hosts and creators, Amber Akilla. DJ, music curator, host of the friend crush podcast, Amber is iconic for her radical perspectives on feminism, culture and her life philosophy of being hot and having fun which has sparked many an interesting discussion on the possibilities for women and queer individuals in today's society. While it was the first time we've met in person, we connected deeply on our roots growing up in Perth, Western Australia and our views on navigating the music industry and life as individuals from the diaspora. So excited to share this super fun conversation with you, and welcome Amber Akilla to the fluffle podcast!Follow Amber Akilla on Instagram: https://instagram.com/amberakillaFollow friend crush on Instagram: https://instagram.com/friend.crushFollow Amber Akilla on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@amberakilla?_t=ZS-8zUJR7ZGzOy&_r=1Follow fluffle on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fluffle.asia/Follow fluffle on Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@fluffle.asiaIf you're looking to distribute your music and retain 100% royalties, sign up for any Tunecore paid plan and get 35% off with the FLUFFLE promo code.
