Tunnganarniq Nunagijavut: Arviat - Jacob Okatsiak and William Bob Issumatarjuak

On this special episode of Tunnganarniq Nunagijavut: Arviat, host Connie Kalluak welcomes Jacob Okatsiak and William Bob Issumatarjuak back to the show for some music.

LIVE on August 6th, 2024.

 Jacob Okatsiak is a hip-hop artist from Arviat, Nunavut. As a kid, he performed at his local church and learned to play drums, piano, and guitar. Inspired by other Indigenous rappers, Jacob began to rap and record his own music, building a northern fan base.


For Jacob, rap music is a form of self-expression which has allowed him to gain confidence and speak from his heart about his emotions and life experiences.
