Samian–aka Samuel Tremblay–joined a group of musicians for a whirlwind tour of seven Chinese cities. The International Organization of the Francophonie sponsored La Fête de la Francophonie, a roving festival showcasing the French-speaking world’s shared linguistic culture. Samian represents Canada. He joined an electro-pop singer from Belgium (Labiur) and a hip-hop trio from France (Al K Traxx).
“Maybe I’m an ambassador for Canada, though I’d prefer to be an ambassador for First Nations; French is okay, but my pride is when I rap in Algonquin.”

I love rap music. I enjoy some of Litefoot's albums and one of my faves by him is "Seeing Red", the first 3 trax on that one was the best. Other Native rappers, I like Nomandik's first album and I love the 2nd song in Red Suspect's 'Retaliate' album.
