To say Ziggy Ramo’s voice is an important one in the Australian hip hop scene would be a gross understatement.

Growing up in remote Arnhem Land, regional NSW, Sydney and Perth and with family connections in Far North QLD, his voice whether through music or public speaking, addresses the silenced injustices of Aboriginal Australia as well as other social issues. Lyrically influenced by artists such as Yasiin Bey (Mos Def), Lauryn Hill and Common, along with activists like Charlie Perkins, Gary Foley and Adam Goodes, Ziggy finds passion in giving voice to issues affecting those often unheard.
