For the next few days at the #OglalaLakotaArtspace , we’re hosting @luuhh.mara & @keyamarleneee who will be working on music in the #WicahpiOlowan studio πππ₯
Already some great songs tracked. My heart feels so happy that they’re here and showcasing their sounds!! Wopila tanka to @playingforchangefoundation & @1stpeoplesfund for making this possible.
So many times I’ll give away my physical copies and then not have enough to provide something cool for folks who come support me at places I perform. So now I’ll be printing and using this as a poster I can sign and give out π - for those who want some memorabilia haha
Made with assets/visuals from @rhythmvisionmedia animated music video of my song “Wana Wacin” ππ
Grateful when I can bring other artists on my projects & collab! Here’s a bts look at @twinnemlex tracking his verse for Wanagi Kola, shouting out me & @witko334 π₯π
Single & Album out now - bts doc on YouTube!

Having myself animated as commods is a blessing I’d never anticipated haha Wopila to @nathanielruleaux for this awesome animated video for “Box Milk”. It’s a song about wearing struggle with honor & actualizing the strength from the unsika times. You can’t tell me boxed milk ain’t a lil decadent (like the beat’s sample) :P my ode to commods & EBT
Old ways stained on the same new clothes.
“Donnie Yeska” is about bossing up as a “mixed blood” - or rather, whilst navigating this world today w/ so many at your neck. Entire project prod by @atticstein & out now π
#bloodquantum is a #colonial concept designed to erase Native peoples and gaslight the world into thinking we are the #vanishingamerican - because a fraction can only ever go down. This track exemplifies that we all #rise regardless of #genocide - that we all will boss up against this system in our own way & come back to the earth. You know, #decolonize #landback #resist - that sorta thing
“Honor The Real” out now on the album “Creator Bless The Underground”

Very excited to do this. I went to this school 4th grade, then onto 7-9th there, transferring in and out. It means a lot to return for something good π
Aké Wopila @tatanka_luta_hoksila for this invitation to come home. I looked up to him growing up, seeing him work with my dad (when my dad worked in mental health) to address the rise in suicides when he was a youth himself still. Means a lot!
Donnie Yeska is The Don Iyeska. Iyeska - translator in Lakota, sometimes referred to as “mixed breed” or “mutt” in some dictionaries. My gpa used to talk to me about it a lot, as a Ducheneaux he’d get called that. Prod by @atticstein π₯π₯π₯π₯

The most hyped up I’ve been in a longgg time. TIOSPAYE TOPA SCHOOL - CRST - HOME!!!! I’m coming!!!!!!
Late November I’ll be coming out to perform at a free community show one night, then hanging out in the classrooms the next day, talking, sharing and presenting to the students.
Not eeeeeven lying, I feel like bawling. I’ve been blessed to step on many stages, professional and makeshift, in diff states and communities. This is one of those ones, without a doubt. I feel like a kid trynna show ppl who saw me so young there what I do now like it’s a drawing for the fridge.
BIG CHIEF NOBODY
