"An outgoing woman lost her life. A young man lost his freedom. A daughter lost her father.
The Teina Pora case is a tragic but necessary story deserving of our combined attention as a society so that we can all learn from its important lessons and move on.
Featuring an exhilarating line up of verses from ten notable artists from within the NZ Hip Hop community enlisted by South Auckland Hip Hop pioneer Ermehn, the powerful four minute Anonymouz produced track and accompanying video directed by internationally award winning director Tuki Laumea serves as their collective artistic response to the case from various viewpoints and angles.
Although at times stinging in some of its emotive criticisms of various aspects of the case, it is fundamentally NOT a judgement of character, but moreso a passionate response to facts.
Our aim is that this work serves as a catalyst for necessary change amongst the various worlds that have intersected in this case.
We hope that our current and future 17 year olds make more positive and better decisions for themselves away from the pressures of gang influences.
We pray that our children have their fathers present in their lives growing up.
We trust that those in positions of governance and power are held to account as evenly and fairly as the very communities that they have sworn to serve under the principal of law that governs us all equally, and that such power is not abused under any circumstances."
man, this is officially a NZ HIPHOP CLASSIC! Best track I've heard from our shores in so long, so much better than all the fakeass wannabe rappers with their tinny production and lame stories, this is that REAL HIPHOP, this is what the artform is all about, u guys smashed it on every level, big ups
This is wicked! Real lyrics about real issues. This is what Hip-hop is meant to be. And all the artists were dope.Great vocal strength! Chur!

much respect to all who take part in this no matter it be big or small, I pray that truth prevails and not clouded by innuendo and here say.

I have thought him innocent all a long and have voiced that opinion more than once. I hope that the privy council see this shambles for what it is and they quash his sentence and pay him a massive payout. Sadly though I would hope that his family dont come for a payout because thats exactly what they were after when he first confessed for the reward money. FREE TIENA!!!! I hope he knows that there are alot of supporters out here. Good on you for making this video...much respect
Awesome work guys!!! Free Teina!!

One lady I know, this was one of her family members. It's cuts me up to think how this man could have lived his life if he wasn't fucked by the system. This is a mean song!
Does anyone know if Peter Jackson or his partner Fran (i think that's her name) have become involved with this case? After he so very publicly went out of his way to support and champion the West Memphis 3. Who were eventually freed (on an alford plea, another matter entirely) Of course he is a busy man and cant be involved in every cause but something this high profile in his backyard he's surely aware of. Anyone?
No they haven't Maraea Halford

@nigel winterstein - "Poetik"
whos the guy with the beanie who raps before laybaq ?
nigel winterstein poetik
Great song whanau tautoko the kaupapa a hundred percent. This was great seeing people from all over getting in and doing there bit in support of someone that was unjustly convicted. On a more sadder note moronic no hopers who have nothing better in there day but to write belittling comments about things that they obviously should know better about as they claim that no other in our great country is up to there capacity intellectually should leave there tedious comments to themselves i.e. You missed the message kiaora whanau kia kaha tama ma
Got me on that ftp vibe...but ftsystem and free teina..already done life x nogood. UB.SA

Artistic Response To the Teina Pora Case thanks bo
Did I just see Rachael hahahah
just like back in the 90s when rap was real not this skinny jeans auto tune bullshit!
Hes free but justice has not been done. He still has a wrongful conviction. At the time he was convicted he was a child. Wat is the purpose of this system that got it so wrong then fails to correct its wrongs in a timely and common sense fashion??
Free but now gagged FOR LIFE - ae his whole ENTIRE LIFE is is banned from speaking to the media about what happened.
FREE TEINA PORA FUC THE SYSTEM
Ha I love how you made it a race related issue
xxxFTPxxx
erhmen flow irritating! LOL mean vid
I now understand why I had never heard of these hip hop 'artists'. Fair cause, rubbish performers
MrTwoknives hater😂😂😂
Underground rappers, real recognises real. Media/Radio won't play the real shit.
no one likes convicted rapists, I hope justice is done. keep this savage in his pen.
no one likes corrupt fucking cops even more what if it happenend to you tough guy u be cryin like a newborn baby!
He was falsely convicted of all crimes? ? Have u read any of the articles? ? And at the time of his conviction he was a child. Teina Pora was an innocent child put in prison by a corrupt system.
go ahead, im a great fuck love ya work. Oh PS great comeback. you rock. Words YOUR TYPE love punk ass bitch ass chump fool and other such terms. Why? Because you're lazy and have a limited and cockeyed view on reality. My Porsche 911 is fun too, thank you for mentioning it Moemoea Mohoawhenua. E kai nga tutae me e mate!
porsche911fun I think moemoea mohoawhenua is mad cause u didnt know teina was falsely convicted?
says the almighty and well trusted NZ justice system. give me a break,
