1. Inspirations
IHHP is centred on the belief that everyone can learn and teach each other. Having worked extensively with remote, regional and urban Indigenous communities across Australia, IHHP are working to close the gap and address the disadvantage faced by Indigenous young people.
2. Your Vision
Founded by Dion Brownfield and Michael Farah, as a group IHHP promote specific community messages through dance, music, media and art. IHHP has employed over 45 professional artists from culturally diverse backgrounds and is continuing to grow.
3. The Environment You Create
The music and dance workshops held by IHHP are about promoting positive mental, physical and sexual health. Through hip hop music and dance, IHHP are encouraging younger people in remote, regional and urban Indigenous communities to talk about health, education and wellbeing. As a young artistic group who deliver 55 week-long projects and perform at over 30 festivals annually, the IHHP are giving young Indigenous people and their communities a voice, empowering them to find their own solutions.
4. Music, Right Here, Right Now
As music evolves constantly, it’s important IHHP maintain authenticity when communicating to local communities, all the while creating engaging and informative content through music and dance.
INDIGENOUS HIP HOP PROJECTS are performing as part of Yalukit Wilum Ngargee at St Kilda Festival on Saturday February 6 at O’Donnell Gardens, St Kilda.
