Snotty Nose Rez Kids Flip The Script With Wit And Wordplay

VANCOUVER – Snotty Nose Rez Kids are sick of hearing the grim narrative in the media about suicide, drug abuse and substandard housing among First Nations people. The self proclaimed “Rez” kids have honed their skills as hip-hop emcees to create a new narrative that they’re eager to share: First Nations kids are more than statistics in the highway of tears or suicide numbers. Aboriginal youth are survivors and creators.

“Our goal is to be a voice of the voices. There are so many things we’ve been through and have to say but haven’t necessarily been said,” says Darren (Young D) Metz. “We have to lead the next wave and the next generation and keep on fighting.”
