Nataanii Means
Oglala Lakota, Omaha and Diné hip-hop artist
Performing in conjunction with the KU Powwow & Indigenous Cultures Festival
Friday • April 10, 2026 • 7:30 pm
Lied Center Main Auditorium*
Nataanii Means is an Oglala Lakota, Omaha and Diné hip-hop artist, organizer and culture-bearer whose music carries the voice of a generation rising from the lands that made them. Born into movement work and raised across powerful Indigenous homelands, Nataanii’s artistry blends razor-sharp lyricism, ancestral memory and modern resistance. His sound moves between ceremony and street, protest and prayer—a bridge between worlds. From the Black Hills to Diné Bikéyah to stages across Turtle Island and beyond, Nataanii has become one of the most respected voices in Indigenous hip hop.
*Due to unforeseen circumstances, the location of this event has changed to the Lied Center Auditorium.
