Lindsay Knight aka Eekwol, originally from Muskoday First Nation,
is a renowned and award-winning hip-hop artist. We talk about the
early influence of Rap City on Much Music, Columbia House picks
(including Souls of Mischief), Fresh Fest and archiving the
scene, being a woman in hip-hop, her crew Innersoulflow and their
eventual breakup, using music to channel energy and as an
opportunity to be introspective, "going solo", the legacy of "Too
Sick" and other socially conscious songs in her catalog, the
importance of writing your own experience, The Unsilent Project,
dealing with harmful behaviour at shows and online, becoming
friends with T-Rhyme*, and a whole lot more.
