Aotearoa's finest Polynesian musicians lend their talents to the original soundtrack of The Panthers – a drama series about the rise of the activist group Polynesian Panthers in the 1970s.

The creative trio behind the suitably excellent soundtrack – rapper Diggy Dupé, award-winning Māori musician Troy Kingi, who performs under the alias P. Smith, and producer Choicevaughn – worked closely with The Panthers creators to develop the album's unique sound, moving fluently between classic-sounding soul and modern hip hop.

"The Panthers music is key to this terrific TVNZ series - and the soundtrack is fab
The Panthers soundtrack (and show) not only does justice to bringing an important part of history to modern audiences, it connects that history with modern music culture in an intergenerational triumph.".... Stuff
