Day 14: A song from a North American Artist

If you haven't already, I strongly recommend subscribing to KEXP on youtube. They promote unknown artists just starting out, as well as gigantic house-hold names, giving them an avenue to perform live. I've found so many bands through them, and here's a gem of a song I stumbled upon ages ago!

Day 13: A song from an Asian artist

I don't know a lot of Asian music, but know Asian Dub Foundation (ADF) from seeing them on Jools Holland.
A real mixture of dub, reggae and whatever else they feel like, often played with traditional Indian instruments.
This is a cool number, with Sinead O'connor providing the vocals
English band and Irish singer for Asia day. You are definitely trolling us now.

I thought a while on this one a picked someone you might not have heard. City Girl is from California. They usually make calm lofi music with a little bit of a city pop vibe, but occasionally they work with a vocalist or two to make a wonderful song like this.
Wii Date- City Girl

Mwaaahh I love City Girl!! :love: Their music is like reading in a window and listening to the rainy concrete jungle outside.
The smell of wet cement. An urban paradise.
 
Day 14: A song from a North American Artist

Canadian First Nation rappers Snotty Nose Rez Kids are a pair of cousins from the Haisla Nation in BC, and I have posted their work before. This is "Skoden," which is short for "let's go then," and was written in response to the Canadian government approving the Trans Mountain Expansion Project, a pipeline that runs from Edmonton to Burnaby, east of Vancouver, BC. It ends with a recorded statement by Beau Dick, an artist and activist from the Kwakwaka’wakw tribe. In 2013, after walking from Alert Bay to Victoria, BC -- some 500 km -- Dick performed a native copper cutting ceremony, breaking a copper shield on the steps of the BC Legislature. Copper is sacred to the First Nations, a symbol of justice and balance, and purposely breaking a shield is a shaming act, an insult to say the other party is out of balance, and doesn't hold to the truth. It was a plea for Canada to repair the fractured relationships and treaties with the First Nations. It demands a response, at least from an honorable party.

Nothing changed.
