Tkay Maidza creates her own playbook. Hailing from Adelaide, the Zimbabwe-born hip-hop artist spent her childhood relocating. Through experiencing a grand total of four different primary schools and three separate high schools, a fierce independence formed in Tkay, and music became her platform.

Tkay was an architecture undergraduate when blessed with the news that the triple j tastemakers had blown up her debut single ‘Brontosaurus’. Fast forward and she’s now an ARIA and BET award nominated artist.

Injecting her signature energy into the flow of Converse’s Rated One Star campaign, Tkay’s One Stars are not for the shelf; they’re worn with pride. They are not the basis of her otherness, rather they work as an agent. Tkay Maidza is here for the weirdos.

Watch Tkay take on the rulebook for Converse Rated One Star in the video above.
