The rappers all agreed that their music is a way for them to express their culture and identity. They rap about their experiences of growing up Aboriginal, the challenges they have faced, and the beauty of their country. Their music is often political, and they use it to speak out against racism and discrimination.
"Our music is a way for us to tell our stories," said one of the rappers, who goes by the name of Briggs. "We rap about our culture, our country, and our experiences. It's a way for us to connect with our people and share our stories with the world."
The rappers also talked about the challenges they have faced as Aboriginal artists in Australia. They said that they have often been stereotyped and marginalized, and that it can be difficult to get their music heard.
"We're often seen as just being angry black men," said one of the rappers, who goes by the name of Baker Boy. "But we're more than that. We're artists, we're musicians, and we have something to say."
Despite the challenges, the rappers said that they are proud of their culture and their country. They said that they are using their music to make a difference in the world, and to inspire other Aboriginal people.
"We're not going to let anyone tell us who we are or what we can't do," said Briggs. "We're Aboriginal rappers, and we're here to stay."
The rappers' music is a powerful and moving expression of Aboriginal culture and identity. It is a voice for the voiceless, and a way for Aboriginal people to share their stories with the world.
