Afroham ft: Dominick Giovanni - Portrait of Self (Single)

Rotterdam producer Afroham is back on Melting Pot Music with ‘Portrait of Self,’ a slow burning rap track built around the voice of Texas MC Dominick Giovanni.

It's the latest step in a steady run of releases from Afroham, who announced himself to a wider audience with his debut EP Quantum Love (MPM, 2023). Equal parts neo-soul, hip hop, and lofi, it found its people and stuck.

On ‘Portrait of Self,’ mellow production meets introspective bars as Dominick Giovanni delivers verses shaped by movement, growth, and lived experience. Raised in a military family and constantly relocating, the New York born MC channels that perspective into sharp, reflective songwriting that speaks to ambition, identity, setbacks, and resilience.

A mainstay in the Chillhop world both as an artist and working behind the scenes, Afroham's superpowers also include DJing and creating visual art via video and 3D animation (which is all the more striking given that he's colourblind). Afroham's artist name is a playful take on his surname and his hairdo.
