On the latest episode, Proud Murrawarri and Filipino artist Dobby takes centre stage with Mic Check, a deep dive into the heart of hip hop and why it is one of the most powerful cultural connectors in the world.
From the Bronx to Redfern, Dobby shows how a beat can carry a message, how a rhyme can tell a truth, and how music can keep culture alive. This is not just about making tracks, it is about making space for community, reclaiming language, and raising voices that need to be heard.
NRMA Insurance, proud supporters of First Nations’ storytelling. Because that’s what a Help Company would do.
