Amok - Hip-hop to the Nordic

We bring you today a musical curiosity. This is Amok, a Finnish rapper whose rhymes only read about 300 people worldwide. And is that Mikkâl Morottaja, which was the name given to a child, singing in a confined Lapp language in the municipality of Inari, the Inari Sami . This language he learned from his father and, like him, only 20 other kids of their age is spoken, although in recent years, smaller and have been interested in preserving the language of their ancestors and have returned to bilingualism.

I do not know if it's because his music (of course not his lyrics) or the strangeness of their language, but this lad of 21 years and is known beyond the icy tundra around your house. There it is.
