Lady Sinncere
Amanda Nahanee, also known as Lady Sinncere, is an Indigenous hip-hop artist from Squamish Nation. Amanda received support from the Vancouver Music Fund's Demo Recording program to collaborate with local producer Hussein Alidina, aka DJ A-SLAM, to create a recording for the original song "Can't Kill Me".
The track features recording artist Christee Lee and traditional percussion played by Chief Ian Campbell. The song honours the past and current struggles of Indigenous people including our murdered and missing Indigenous women and girls.
