Nakurmiik friends, family, collaborators, and crew, for last night. Nakurmiik Canada Post for this huge honor. Nakurmiik @inuittapiriitkanatami for the constant support. I’m thinking of my late parents Mary and Elaijah Isaac who would have been so impressed, and would have been celebrating in the most humble way at the Salluit post office. I’m also thinking of my late biological qallunaaq father George Pinkston who, every Christmas, would send a gift through the post office, from Brigus, Newfoundland, making me feel so special. And my puukuluk Eva who always reminded me to stand strong when I didn’t feel so confident. Last but not least, I think of my qataapik my big cousin the late Alaku Papigatuk Abraham, who was madame post office in Salluit. How proud is she right now of her qataapik, her little cousin. I could just see your face. ❤️ This is for the little Inuit kings and queens, hope this makes your hearts smile.

@metallica a été une vraie révélation dans le Nord, et “The Unforgiven” a été une chanson qui nous a aidé à traverser l’adolescence. This song was like an anthem for us Inuit kids. Voici notre version acoustique avec @joegrassmusic hope you like it. @opakmediamusic @yotankarecords @bonsound @girlieaction @afx_agency @newmoonpublicity ❤️🖤• • • • •#metallica #theunforgiven #theunforgivencover #acousticcover #inuit #inuktitut #nunavik #elisapie
Californiamut. Loved translating this song in Inuktitut. It feels like it tells an Inuk story. All my love to Led Zep who inspired and introduced to my uncles rock and roll 🙏🏽 @joegrassmusic @ledzeppelin @bonsound @yotankarecords @opakmediamusic #ledzepplin #goingtocalifornia #californiamut #inuktitut #salluit #nunavik #inuit

Breathing new life into notable pop and rock classics, Contemporary Indigenous Artist of the Year winner @elisapie beautifully translates ten iconic songs from the 1960s to 1990s into her mother tongue, the thousand-year-old Inuit language, Inuktitut. The record is more than a collection of covers, ‘Inuktitut’ is described by Elisapie as an emotional autobiography with each song representing a deeply personal memory or story from her youth. On Inuktitut, Led Zeppelin’s “Going to California” transforms into a tribute to her uncle during the residential school era while “Taimangalimaaq (Time After Time)” is associated with memories of her aunt Alasie and cousin Susie.
