From Dzaleka refugee camp in Malawi, with poet, musician and community activist Tresor Mpauni. We talk about his early influences growing up in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) - including African folk tales and music - how he joined a boyband, discovered French rap music, and started writing his own music and poetry.
He tells me about why he had to leave the DRC, even though he had a promising career there - about arriving in Dzaleka camp - and the poetry club in Lilongwe.
Tresor set up the first arts festival inside a refugee camp -  Tumaini Festival - which has grown to become the largest festival in Malawi. A particularly remarkable feat considering the restrictions placed on refugees in Malawi.
It was such a pleasure to chat to him, and to hear his poetry - if you want to check him out, he's on twitter @menesla (Menes La Plume) &  @tumainifestival
