Native America Calling
August 30, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
Today, August 30 – Native innovations in hip-hop’s enduring art form
As fans mark the 50th anniversary of the birth of hip-hop, we’ll zero in on contributions by Native artists. Diné rapper Def-i is among the big winners at this month’s International Indigenous Hip-Hop Awards in Vancouver, B.C. Gary Paul Davis aka Litefoot (Cherokee Nation/Chichimeca) is one of the OGs of Native hip-hop, winning a handful of Native American Music Awards. We’ll hear from them and other artists about what’s fresh and current among Native talent as hip-hop pushes past middle age.
