2:35 pm
panties now but it takes not like the shrub and away from the case i join an embrace but how about for a. place open space for the case of the case concept of. so i want to sort this all 1st of all. you've got an incredible amount of passion and energy in your music and in your art and that really comes through and someone watches you perform like we just did i mean truly an inspirational so i will i really want to start with asking you who is the 5 defy is and see music
2:36 pm
producer artist educator from albuquerque new mexico representing the dinette nation defies also if you broke it break it down into acronym could be definitely eternal or deaf eternal forever inferno or definitely eternal forever internal short for definition rare. if you look at a sonic leaking chi chi $55.00 and somewhere in there is that 5 or more to defy the 5 began probably in my middle school time and i've stuck with the name ever since so what like what was your inspiration and experience that. led you to bring you know hip hop spoken word hip hop and traditional native american culture together in your are like what brought those 2 forces together. i think it would be a combination of livin in a urban and rural area and environments as a youth wasn't raised primarily on from a traditional side nor. you know the other side of things so basically. as
2:37 pm
a use my grandparents on my maternal side they really instilled a lot of wisdom when i was at a lesson my mother also taught me how to read and write before i could walk so they gave me a good leading start to begin with in middle school i'd say about that time i got introduced to hip hop culture as far as like to be boys be gross i 1st started i seen a direct similarities and connection between hip hop culture and my traditional culture as a dinette person and that both of those connections led me to kind of combine both together what were called real errors of value. for instance as a dinette person we have 4 clans we're very matrilineal culture in our reservation it's around about 4 sacred mountains 4 sacred directions a lot of these numbers stood out to me and for the hip hop 4 main elements to it. one of the main connections that really led me to become connected we have is. the philosophies too as well like our people were not very judgment on this much for
2:38 pm
the most part and hip hop kind of is and is a universal culture to me so without having to look at someone's skin tones practitioner can practice the ceremonies and feel like that was inviting for me a lot of times it was hard to find acceptance growing up there in new mexico where i'm from so hip hop was there and so i always carry my cultural heritage with me. it's interesting. you raised over a 1000000 dollars a big number you raised the room 1000000 dollars to help the water protectors of standing rock when that went down what was your inspiration for stepping forward and saying you know what i'm going to use my are going to use who i am and what i do to raise money for those people out there putting you know putting their lives on the line and standing room. you know i was a part of the fund raising i didn't do it entirely myself i've got to give credit to the collective crew family which you say of. hip hop practitioners people who
2:39 pm
are just there to help and you know we we all together fund raise over a 1000000 dollars in one night via hip hop concert by texting water at this certain number you able to leave a monetary donation just a little back story with that but i started out as a battle rapper a 1st and i stay in the entertainment value side of that but after a while i realized that i could apply myself in much more useful ways are much more impactful ways rather than battling someone's head to head why not try to go towards a system instead and try to wake up and defy the system sort of speak and. that's kind of how defy started i did a song when i 1st was inspired as these hydraulic fracturing zones were getting closer and closer to my homelands where my grandparents are from this and new mexico it's very rural at that point in time i realized that i needed to apply myself as an mc a music producer towards the much larger issues that and then just battle rap so i stepped outside of the box and wrote this song called the land of in fact me and
2:40 pm
that's kind of a flip on the on the slogan of our state and just to expose and also raise awareness of all these atrocities that are happening throughout draw that fracturing zones in our areas and from that point on i've just been helping hand as part of the many different movements for the indigenous peoples movement and many others as well but that's probably the most that was a that was a beginning you know after hearing your music and like i mentioned earlier that passion that you have that like just bleeds out of every every verse every bar every word i really want those like how do you sit down when you sit down the writers write a song you know like what is that process for you when you sit down and say ok you know i'm going to write about this issue of fracking or i'm just going to you know write some fire to get people jumping up about like what how do you tackle that how do you approach each song each song is kind of approach very differently but for the most part i'm writing on. my lyrics behind the driver's seat i know it's
2:41 pm
a little risky but where i'm at is very rural areas i could drive out and enjoy the scenery. and be out of the city put on a instrumental usually the beep guides 1st take out my beats through different producers go from there and so you're literally like right behind the wheel of a car in a beautiful new mexico exactly into your painted sky of landscape or you're just sitting there listening to examine and write that well yeah exactly a lot of times off freestyle to think of the ideas and then just put it down on paper. who are some of your inspirations and your pa. many inspirations i guess from my youth the 1st hip hop song i probably would have heard was probably a run d.m.c. or chill raji track and as far as emceeing goes there's so many different amazing talented mcs that have inspired me to name a few. big pun big. care as one percy p.
2:42 pm
. micah 9 a free stuff fellowship evidence the dilated peoples those are very influential artists and that's a good variety and you can see that not reflected in your work and said so glad you don't feel bad but you can definitely feel that the style you know and that they do you know one of the things that's interesting too is your work you work a lot with young people you know and. you know how has your work with those young people how was that inspired the music and the art that you create the youth of boys inspired me since the beginning and especially when times when i guess an artist may get tired of war now from trying to continue working with the youth has been very inspirational because they provide so much support 1st of all and they keep things brand new and fresh for me i don't get worn out or i don't complain a lot a lot of people say like how do you keep going and not complaining about being on the road all the time. just gone back home and doing youth outreach it just makes
2:43 pm
me i get happy true happiness by working with the youth i was always raised in a classroom setting i come from a family of educators and healers so i've always been in the classroom since i was a kid my mom has been a teacher and a big inspiration for that so when people ask why are you so connected to that evolution it's just kind of just who i am and was brought up that way and raised that way but working with the youth also gives me a sense of purpose that's much deeper than. working for just myself for what would you say monetary gain or certain things like that or some are just going for the fame like that's never really been a focus of mine but. hip-hop practitioners and see i feel like i have a responsibility to give back and that's what i really focus on that it's a big focus of part of my mission couldn't afford the jaw a magazine 44 and a 4th that john ordered schoolboy in a boarding school forced the move got chores and more sports in
2:44 pm
a dorm but only one course of fire chief kept the wood burning before morning outside the house early at 440 past the sheep rug on the floor by the door in the dormitory escaped out of corporate doors and explored my boar pony here to take it back home because ya not the present to scrub the present not your face and scrape the white the residue resume like beams of people resonate with resolute. able to cope with all the pain that we soak in the next generations of welcome but before the preservation was a home you know the nation was stolen but i'm in a sweat lodge see in a vision it's like i'm back out the boom dreamin of grandmother moon in the fetal position. please. the washington consensus led by the united states says the liberal world order must be defended and almost said differently.
2:45 pm
2:49 pm
to. the president now with the. group. and the sure. that you would still. know. how to. describe. a lot of people i think especially who are part of the indigenous population here in the united states who are part of the native american community or the tribes and things like that you know. there's a lot of misconceptions out there you know. what do you feel are some of the biggest misconception people have about your culture and where you're coming from.
2:50 pm
yeah. far away from home and sometimes sense. that people look at. not even human beings in certain instances not everywhere but there are some places but i can look at somebody and just take a quick glance and they almost look at me with some type a sense of resentment there are people out there who believe that. we're only one kind of people i mean there's so many different tribes that exist here in the country and we're all very different a lot of times people to like you know we're sitting here at a bar a lot of times people think that we're just alcoholics myself. i've been over like 6 years alcohol free in like there's many of us who never even drank or did drugs before so that's another misconception people believe that we're all poor but we're really we're very rich in culture tradition cultural heritage a lot of people also believe that. every tribe gets per capita or like we we're
2:51 pm
helped out are like where we get a helping hand no matter what it's really not the case sometimes when you come to the deep parts of the reservations or the most rural areas i think a lot of people in music they only see the big names in the big lights right like they're only used to see in the cat on them t.v. or the cat on the cover of a magazine things like that but that it's a bigger world than that i've heard you describe sort of like you know if you become in if i don't artist at a certain time you can you know either be in it for monetary gain and be like this was to be considered as a rapper but i consider myself more as and see and i think that allows myself to be more community based and not a self-serving entrepreneur or more like you know i'm here of service as well for. representing myself my family my friends but also the culture of hip hop and that sense of pride in me being proud of who i am as an as and in that manner and also as and see it gives me strength but also gives me direction to what i'm actually
2:52 pm
doing here with the music hip hop is. save my life so. me being me being part of the culture is just i mean i want to contribute just as much as i can chip pop is helping me so when they sort of surgery life how did hip hop save your life. hip hop saved. my life. through the friendships and bonds and through the practice of itself i felt like as i was working on these skills the skills were also working on me to become a better person and started out as a homeless artist and if it wasn't for the hip hop community or the hip hop scene at that time i wouldn't have had a place to stay i wouldn't have had. food and just basic survival needs so hip hop community has been there for me since day one and what advice would you give you know old or younger person in similar shoes to you who finds that spirit
2:53 pm
finds that voice you know through music. for myself i mean our our tribe deals with a lot of energy enter a chanel trauma or trauma that. historical trauma if you'd say and. a big part of me growing as artists was realizing that i had to accept my uniqueness as a virtue and. self actualized myself in a community to help me reach for much more potential then i would if i didn't believe in myself so it really took me believing in myself and loving myself from there like things branched out but. i would encourage anyone out there who has it as a positive outlet of expression self-expression to continue with that and don't stop .
2:54 pm
because the there was people turned out like that right on the economy because people brought a lot of economic back in my defense it has to be good but the but the pakistan spot that you tried to get the baby lobby respect those who came before except you create stories about the scouts trading a half a day at home a proud native that that's the best. now what of foundation this now is the downgrade you know by now a little trap south was allowed me to have some powwow somewhere south surround sound and the crowd house round is proud black is black i somehow said. you can hear a. guy you'll be found wow but they don't want to see. one of. the people. with the man but i got i hustled off a couple. of them what i'm. up to man up a man. doesn't help us if we just take it to stop just to.
2:55 pm
stop. that's just a president. that. racist. tries it's just sort of it's like to make these classic songs that you want to present the street. but don't get caught up in a trend that's somewhat helpful because our style they've been based in it's at the foot of the milk with the bob agenda. no surprise that the deal is made is actually could give. this to this track if they don't mind is very hysterical times are better prepared but a lightsaber suggested you might say never your flight back to the heart of the same rock with all that tradition open to signal hip hop you do have. you know political nature to what you're talking about because i think a lot of what you are a lot of what you what your songs are about you know they like you mentioned or
2:56 pm
fracking and things like that you know you put those those flavors in there how important is music to changing. politics or changing in issue or attacking an issue or making people aware of an issue like abortion is music to. feel like music can inspire and empower many people. and i feel like it the message is there that. or you look at it like the last song that you did for like the last song that you did for us that's such an enlightening song and it's such a powerful song using the mix of you know your heritage and your people as well as that drum beat and that hip hop flavor in the archipelago you know you know that song has about that song teachers as a tribal person you kind of grow up loving the environment and that's it and that's inside you already instilled so. doesn't make you a politician sort of speak but the issues that politics you know surround it they
2:57 pm
directly relate our lives and way to life so. it's a responsibility for me to create music that. inspires and helps empower others because i was just inspired and empowered from hearing music from a lot of the greats and legends of the hip hop pioneers is that it's a continuations you know you know it right you know it's a beautiful continuation. i want to finish up and ask you you know when you look at your career and you look at where you're going you know you're only 33 years old you've got a long career in front of you got a lot more music to write a lot more beauty to produce on this world what do you what do you imagine or what do you hope your legacy years with your music and who you are. and i got inspired from reading something i think from kara's one or somewhere where he's making music for the future generations creating a catalog that can last and also transcend generations i would like for my music to help inspire future generations and also help anybody in need
2:58 pm
who. who feels alone or phil's. depressed i mean. i make music just to help a lot and i do make music just likes i do have track i just to fire not really. just focus on a specific concept but as. hard to see the ripple effects of us sometimes because we're just moving and moving and moving and moving i hope to look back one day and be able to. thrive with my music career but also really it's a money give back tenfold as much as i received i mean i've seen my hip hop has been there since the beginning so it's hard for me to say what i really want out of it it's hard to describe man i just sometimes that the music speaks for itself. and that ladies and gentlemen is our show for you to day thank you all very much for watching and remember in this world we are not told that we are loved enough so i tell you all i love you tyrrel but keep on watching those hawks and have
2:59 pm
