Kaluyu'ti is "The Peaceful Warrior" and stands to unite nations through celebration, education and information. Kaluyu'ti is a Native Poet who is active in his community by promoting First Nations events via the internet and has also guest hosted "Smoke Signals" Aboriginal Radio Programming on CHRW Radio Western 94.9FM in London Ontario Canada. Kaluyu'ti has heard a great deal of distress, anger, hostility and racism amongst his own people against both his own people as well as non-natives alike. There must be a change in order for us to make a better world for our seventh generation. Therefore, he has come to recording his messege in a format that will reach far more people than just writing poetry. The Peaceful Warrior is released on Demon-Eye Records in 2004 and produced primarily by Emcee alter E but also some tracks produced by Tristan Giallani.
Band/artist history
I love music and I love writing. The two go hand in hand. After spending a couple of years filling in as guest dj on CHRW Radio Western 94.9 FM I was exposed to lots of excellent Native American artists. However, the primary genre of music listened to by our youth is hip hop and alternative. And there seemed to be a great deal of angry music being put out. In 2003, I decided i would try to counter some of this music with my own writings promoting strength in culture and positive energy and with an aim to bring people together. We must educate non-natives so that they can understand our dispositions, and we need to educate natives on how we can change our image to the "greater society" This means that we need to control our drinking, stop using drugs and chemicals, we need to finish school and prove we can deal with a modern world while staying in touch with what our elders are teaching us. We have one of the most beautiful cultures in the world and we should not only be proud of it but flaunt it when we can as well.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Not yet! but i'm looking to get out there if anyone cares to hear social commentary on our world condition.
