Iva Sativa

Iva Sativa is a Belarusian singer, rapper and performer who, starting in 2019, enchants audiences with her unique blend of Belarusian folk, hip-hop and drum'n'bass. White tracksuit singing, folk songs to a club beat, a rap manifesto that escapes censorship and travels across borders. Her urban-rural electrofolk seems to be the perfect medium to describe the fractured identity of a country that cannot break out of the strong embrace of history, geopolitics and the imperial dream of its neighbor that is becoming an externalized nightmare.
