Beats, Culture, and Change: A Yarn with Dem Mob

  • Summary

  • In this episode of the Black Magic Woman Podcast, I sit down with the talented group Dem Mob, a rising Indigenous hip-hop band making waves in the Australian music scene. Dem Mob, formed in 2019, began as a school project aimed at re-engaging Indigenous youth through music and culture. Today, they've transformed into a powerhouse collective, bringing Aboriginal language and culture to the forefront of their music, blending English and Pitjantjatjara languages to reach diverse audiences.

    In our yarn, we discuss the group’s origins, their mission to inspire Indigenous youth, and the importance of integrating culture with education. They share how music provided them an escape and a path to empowerment, overcoming the challenges of mainstream education systems that often leave Indigenous students feeling disconnected. Now, with award-winning tracks and performances at major events like SXSW Sydney, Dem Mob continues to inspire and give back to their communities.

    Tune in to hear about their journey, their dedication to culture, and their vision for the future. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn more about Dem Mob’s powerful music and message.
