Description

Episode transcript available here.It’s another Hart House Hip Hop Education Takeover of The West Meeting Room! Hart House Hip Hop Ed works with campus partners and community Hip Hop practitioners to further values of representation, collaboration, and social justice, as we explore the key principles of Hip Hop and its importance in our everyday culture. In Winter 2021, we were joined by two U of T student interns as we explored Indigenous voices in Hip Hop. Drew Rickard and Lloyd Cousins joined Marco Adamovic  for our second episode, with legendary Toronto engineer, producer, artist, and DJ, David ‘Gordo’ Strickland . We explored his love for Hip Hop, including meaningful records in his catalog, elements of his Indigenous identity, the relationship between visual art and music, and so much more. Fun fact: the title for this episode is based on a waveform tattoo that David has on his arm. Listen in to hear its origin, as well as knowledge and wisdom from a true legend in the Canadian Music Industry!

Real talk about growing up, being human, and navigating student life as we explore the feels, fails, and stories that help us understand ourselves and each other. We are passionate about the power of story to create change, shift perspectives and deepen understanding. This student-led production is a space to create dynamic and engaging audio work and share personal narratives that connect us to intimate conversations about social justice, identity and community.
