Peuple invincible - Samian

Samian was born in Pikogan, in the Abitibi region of northern Quebec, in 1983. When he was 12 years old, he left the reservation and lived in various cities in Quebec. Having forgotten his native language, he relearned it with his grandmother's help, and became the first rapper to express himself in French and Algonquin. He got his start thanks to Wapikoni Mobile, a mobile recording and film studio which travels throughout Quebec giving a voice to young First Nations people.
