Tribe Called Red (feat Das Racist): “Indians From All Directions” / Show This Saturday

Canadian producer/DJ crew Tribe Called Red are an innovative trio that combines electronic production and rapped lyrics with traditional pow wow chants and drum beats.  Not only do they make some great music, but they are also outspoken activists for aboriginal issues and Native heritage. The Tribe will be performing at the Triple Rock Social Club this Saturday night with local rapper Tall Paul and Rez Rap (which is likely a representative/crew from Red Lake’s Rez Rap Records).  Tribe Called Red will be supporting their most recent record Nation II Nation, which was shortlisted for the Polaris Prize for Best  Canadian Artist.  Their self-titled debut record is also available for download here.
