Welcome to ALTBAYS Show. (feat. Leo Magri, Te Paea Puha)
Meet Tipene, NZ Hip Hop artist
Not being great at school can teach you more than you think. Tipene was about to drop out when he find out that people wanted him to be the head boy in his last year of school. He was not even keen to go through that last year. His friends were sure that it was the thing for him to do though. Not all teachers agreed, but Tipene took that as an extra reason to keep on moving, believing in his dream, providing the ignorant wrong and turning his passion towards music into a successful career.
Tipene is a teacher, a voice, a learner and an inspiration to many who think that the Maori language and culture should be at the forefront. Why not, honestly? From playing with his idols Scribe, Dam Native and Che-fu to inspiring kids in the classroom,; the teacher Tipene has a lot to share.
Listen to these great stories from a man who takes everything he does very seriously, with his heart and soul.
