The track blends cultures and languages, bringing a fresh perspective to the urgent call for political accountability in the face of systemic injustice. With its catchy beat and meaningful lyrics, “Don Politico” is more than just a song—it’s a movement. This collaboration features Adrian Sutherland, a roots-rock artist from the Attawapiskat First Nation, and Rodrigo Massa, a stunning talent from Brazil and Mexico. Together, they deliver a compelling yet timeless message: It’s time for politicians to prioritize the people they serve, not their own interests.

Meanwhile, the music video, filmed at the gorgeous Grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes in Manitoba, perfectly captures the song’s essence. The towering walls symbolize the political, cultural, and even racial barriers often dividing us. Originally inspired by Adrian’s 2019 protest song “Politician Man,” this new version expands its reach, combining Spanish and English lyrics to create a cross-cultural intersection. The collaboration celebrates unity and dignity, highlighting two people’s shared yet different experiences and struggles. Adrian brings his unique roots-rock sound and heartfelt storytelling, drawing from his Cree heritage and life in Canada’s Far North. Meanwhile, Rodrigo, known for his work in film and music, adds a vibrant flair to the project, further bolstering its cultural reach.
