#16. 2oolman (Tim Hill) of A Tribe Called Red

DEEKAST #16 @2oolman (Tim Hill) is an amazing hip-hop producer and one of my biggest influences. I caught up with him in Toronto after a set with his group A Tribe Called Red at George Strombo's house to chat about the group, his journey making beats and the current political climate. A Tribe Called Red is a Canadian electronic music group, who blend instrumental hip hop, reggae, moombahton and dubstep-influenced dance music with elements of First Nations music, particularly vocal chanting and drumming. Based in Ottawa, Ontario, the group consists of three DJs: Ian "DJ NDN" Campeau (of the Nipissing First Nation), Tim "2oolman" Hill (Mohawk, of the Six Nations of the Grand River), and Bear Witness (of the Cayuga First Nation).
