Nataanii Means

Nataanii Means is a formidable voice within the Indigenous music scene, an artist whose work transcends mere entertainment to embody a powerful form of storytelling and advocacy for Native American issues. The son of the late American Indian Movement leader and activist Russell Means, Nataanii inherited a legacy of activism that he weaves seamlessly into his artistry. Born and raised in Chinle, Arizona, on the Navajo Nation Reservation, he found his voice through music, merging hip-hop with his Indigenous heritage to create a sound that is both unique and resonant with meaning.

Means's discography is a testament to his growth as an artist and a testament to his commitment to tackling social issues. With recent releases like "I Remain" and "GROWTH," he delivers lyrical prowess mixed with poignant narratives that speak to both personal and collective experiences of Indigenous people. Tracks such as "Heaven & Hell" and "Expectations" showcase his adeptness at exploring the complexities of identity and resistance, while "Earth Girl," "Balance," and "2 Worlds" reflect his deep connection to the land, culture, and the intergenerational struggle for justice. As a musician, activist, and filmmaker, Nataanii Means continues to inspire and lead a new generation in the fight for Indigenous rights through the universal language of music.
