Abstract: | This paper examines how Indigenous hip hop gains decolonization specifically in two artworks that were presented in the exhibition Beat Nation. Nicholas Galanin’s Tsu Heidei Shugaxtutaan Part One and Two and Kevin Lee Burton’s Nikamowin (Song) create a space of decolonization not only for Indigenous peoples but for non-Indigenous peoples as well. Here, an exploration of how Indigenous artists such as Burton and Galanin engage with hip hop, how Indigenous hip hop creates receptive and listening ears in non-Indigenous peoples to the concerns of Indigenous peoples, and how Indigenous hip hop causes non-Indigenous peoples to question their own ideologies occurs. |
