Narcy commented on the track stating, “I think it is the first time in history where you have an African, an Iraqi and the Indigenous of Canada are on one song. It’s an important breaking in culture, we are coming together to counter the narratives built around the history of our communities and showing the power of our people combined. It feels like the beginning of something new and old, the rebirth after many injustices”
A Tribe Called Red promotes inclusivity, empathy and acceptance amongst all races and genders in the name of social justice. They believe that indigenous people need to define their identity on their own terms. If you share this vision, then you are already part of the Halluci Nation.
We Are The Halluci Nation will be released in Australia on September 16th, you can pre-order the album HERE
