I would just like to take a little bit of time out of everyone's day to introduce you all to Amoc.

Now, Amoc is a rapper. He's also Saami. The Saami are the native peoples of Finland's far north, and have been discriminated against and subjugated by the Finnish for a very long time. The particular subgroup of Saami he belongs to - the Inari Saami - are close to extinct. Their language is even closer, with only around 300 people able to speak it fluently.

Amoc is one of those people. The reason 99.9% of you won't understand a word he's saying is because he's rapping in Inari Saami. He's deeply involved in efforts to keep the dialect alive, and sounds badass to boot while doing it. Give him a listen - he's generally awesome.
