“Made in Tibet” by Shapaley

This is a song by Switzerland-based RAPtivist, #Shapaley. It shows pride for Tibetan culture, reminding people to not forget where they come from and where they are going.  Shapaley is among the first emcees I’ve come across who raps in Tibetan—pretty cool.

Also, if you’re looking for a good laugh paired with a thoughtful message also check out his self-titled song “Shapaley” that plays on a metaphor about the traditional Tibetan dumpling dish. Hilarious!
