| Outlandish: It’s about the message [Skandinavian.dk] |
Hip-hop music minus the sex, drugs, profanity and violence may not sound commercially viable but for the Danish sensation Outlandish it is not about the money – it is about the message.

On Thursday’s Riz Khan we speak to the group about the themes of hope and responsibility that heavily influence their music and which stem from their faith-based lives.
As they launch their first-ever US tour, we will ask the group how they managed to find financial success in an industry that seems to thrive on vulgarity and whether or not their recipe can work in the US.
