简介
Salvajes is a group of Emcees, Breakers, DJs , and activists that represent a conscious Hip-Hop movement in Santa Ana and all over the world. We stand for justice and equality in our communities and Hip Hop is our vehicle of revolution towards liberation! Our sound is classic, gritty, boombap type of Hip Hop with a mix of cultural, bilingualism, and political commentary. Salvajes is comprised of Joese Gloria, Mic Hempstead, IllNes Infection, Alpha Ready, and DJ Clouded Daily. However Salvajes is more than just the group, Salvajes is all of our brothers and sisters in the struggle for a better world, whom we are in solidarity with. We live and breathe Hip Hop and this is our vessel to take back that which has been taken from us through genocide, gentrification, and cultural appropriation. We were referred to and treated like wild animals, and killed just the same. We have chosen this as our name because it is a word that we use to describe the passion, love, skill and tenacity it takes to live in this concrete jungle. They called us and our way of life savage, while we knew then as we know now, that our way of life was holistic, communal, self-reliant and simple. Our colonization is more than the theft of our lands and our culture but also of our minds and of our future. We seek to bring awareness to our struggle and decolonize ourselves from the systems of oppression. While once we shied away from words and actions that would make the colonizers think we were "savage" and not worthy of the same rights as they, now we proudly say YES, I AM A SAVAGE. SI, SOY SALVAJE!
