Gabriel Night Shield is from the Rosebud Reservation in South Dakota. He began his record company ten years ago and he has released three solo projects. When he first got into the rap game, South Dakota’s hip hop scene was just beginning. Since then, Night Shield has seen the hip hop scene almost explode into a recognizable underground scene. Night Shield Entertainment has been the driving force behind the movement.
Night Shield has won music awards from the various Native American music organizations and he has performed at all of their award ceremonies. His music comes from his personal experiences and tribulations and it is not glorifying the mainstreams stereotypical hard core rap. Instead, he writes about life growing on the Rosebud Reservation and similar experiences one encounters surrounded by life there.
I (Tobias Grant\ Omaha, Sisseton, Dineh, Eastern Cherokee) recently interviewed Night Shield and we discuss his music, his record label and how to survive in the underground hip hop scene in South Dakota.
