Tune-in to CKUT radio for 'world skip the beat', the third edition of Cultural
Crossroads, hosted by journalist Stefan Christoff, featuring interviews with
leading global music artists from Montreal.
CKUTs radio's weekly global music program, 'world skip the beat', airs each
Monday featuring musical sounds from around the world.
A special edition, Cultural Crossroads III, will highlight unique music while
featuring extended interviews with Algonquin hip-hop artist Samian and Cuban
hip-hop ensemble Obsesión.
* Samian is an Algonquin hip-hop artist based in Montreal, the first to rap in
both French and Algonquin. Born in the community of Pikogan in Abitibi
Temiscamingue, Samian (Samuel Tremblay) recounts the tales of the youth in his
community and the plight and struggles of First Nations. Samian's music has
struck a cord in Quebec society and within the hip-hop community and beyond
through collaborations with the celebrated Quebec hip-hop ensemble Loco Locass.

* Obsesión is an internationally celebrated Cuban hip-hop ensemble who recently
visited Montreal for a series of community concerts hosted by Nomadic Massive.
Obsesión is a group that celebrates their Afro-Cuban identity, the Havana-based
rappers are both supportive and critical of the revolutionary Cuban government,
and mix contemporary hip-hop with traditional Cuban musical traditions.
Obsesión tackles key issues facing Cuban society today using Spanish lyrics.
During Obsesión's last visit to Montreal, Stefan Christoff spoke with
Obsesión's Magia Lopez and Alexey Rodriguez with translation assistance from
Nomadic Massive's Lou Piensa.
