Ali Curung - 'Bounce With Me'

Описание: Indigenous Hip Hop Projects was proud to revisit Ali Curung in the NT to make this deadly dog-dreaming-inspired hip-hop music video called "Bounce With Me". This is the place of the dog dreaming where four tribes come together living in one community: Warlpiri, Warumungu, Kaytetye, Alyawarr. The local football team, the white and blue 'Ali Roos' were an inspiration for this song, while students explored themes based around healthy lifestyle choices and saying no to sniffing, drugs and alcohol. IHHP artists Jjay Demelo, Dion Brownfield, Tina Demelo, Creedence Blanco and Nellie Harris had the best week working with all the students, teachers and entire community. The Hip Hop concert night that saw the launch and world-premiere of this clip was so special with over 200 community members attending, busting out moves and enjoying the community BBQ.

We are the girls of Ali Curung
We dance together under the sun (Ebony)
Elders bin teach us language and culture
Make sure you listen to what they told ya (Aliana)

This is our dreaming, culture business (Christy)
When the sun gets hot and we need to cool down

Come together let’s stop the fighting
Drinking and smoking is not the right thing (Sherany)
We love hunting and getting bush tucker
