about

#Yínííłcore is more than an album title. It's an invitation. A name for that certain mood every Diné creates from. Maybe not all of the time but often enough to recognize it.
For me, #Yínííłcore is that hopeless Rez boredom when all that you'll ever need just isn't enough right now and how shitty that makes you feel. It's the inspiration you get from making the mistakes you wish you hadn't made. It's the complacency when you feel like you're not doing enough. Its the frustration you feel when you can't really express yourself in nizaad. It's the feeling you get when you leave a love on the Rez because you're trying to make it in the city, only to get your heart broken by settlers or worse. You make it in the settlements but nik'é dóó nidiné'e don't know you no more. More specifically, #yínííłcore is the past 8 years I've been writing songs almost every week. A lot of them are incomplete, forgotten, or thrown away. This collection is what survived.
