 American (Diné) traditionally influenced, high-energy, politically driven 
 group comprised of two brothers and their sister. Born into the heart of a 
 political land dispute area on Black Mesa in the Navajo Nation, this 
 Family's powerful music reflects the hopes, freedoms, and barriers of 
 today's world. Blackfire's style comprises traditional Native American, 
 Punk, Ska and Alternative with strong sociopolitical messages about 
 government oppression, relocation of indigenous people, eco-cide, genocide, 
 domestic violence and human rights. www.blackfire.net \nBLESSED I, aka 
 Marisa Aniel - a San Francisco native, transforms poetry into both 
 spiritual and conscious messages through Hip-Hop music. Inspired by 
 artists/musicians such as Bob Marley and Marvin Gaye, her lyrics overlay 
 hard knock sounding beats served over smoothed out melodies. \nRAS K’DEE,

 solo album, Transcendental State of Music, for Nucuma Records. Ras K’dee 
 has performed with artists like Strictly Roots, Eek-A-Mouse, Living 
 Legends, Loco Bloco, Martin Luther and Tre’s Legend of Phoenix. His music 
 challenges recycled radio rap and reaches far beyond graphic sex, drugs and 
 violence to inspire all people to reach higher.\n\n8.BLISS is an MC and

 is a national network active in the resistance to the US government
