Background

The title of the EP is inspired by the two worlds that came together to create this sound. Scandi (Scandinavian)- For Swedish producer Fredro which is the executive producer of this project, and Rara for Moxiie's Haitian background. Rara is a type of festival music in Haiti. While it's often fueled by politics, Moxiie's spin on the concept is inspired by her memory of the only carnival she got to attend as a child in Haiti. "I was too young to understand lyrics, but I will never forget how it made me feel, re-creating and sharing that feeling was one of my goals with ScandiRara." The EP features one of the most prominent artists in the international reggae/dancehall scene Mr. Vegas, which collaborates with Major Lazer, Beyoncé, and won a MOBO awards.
