The “Written In Blood Compilation” from Peace and Balance of Native Movement. “The lyrics and songs encompass notions of self-respect and social responsibility for youth and those who raise them. It motivates listeners to not give up and to live life to the fullest” Yaiva says, and has dedicated his life to serving the youth, and he delivers his philosophy through a medium which they can hear and understand, music. The “Written in Blood” compilation album is an effort to address the violence in communities of color. Many of the songs are from established artists in the Native music scene who have actively shared their voices on this topic or have been affected by violence in their own lives. What is unique about this album is that there are five new songs from up and coming artists who have lived and survived street life on the reservation and urban communities. The compilation album will also feature Casper Loma-Dawa from Hopi, KASP from Victoria, BC, Canada, 2006 NAMMY winner Buggin Malone from Oneida, Quese iMC of the Pawnee and Seminole Nations, Hell-n-Back of Team Rez Official from Vancouver, BC, Canada, Wabs Whitebird of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and more. Pow-wow and traditional singers include the award winning hand drum singer Jaye Begay, southern group Buc Wild of Chinle, northern group Rivertail of Flagstaff, AZ.
