Created as an educational project for the tamariki by Matua Rob
combining Te Reo Maori with Modern Rap/pop, to produce bilingual tracks that were made into YouTube videos and compiled into what became the Waikirikiri Swag EP (2017) which proved to be a massive underground hit. The EP has gained a bit of a cult following in Aotearoa in recent years because it exemplifies the chill vibes Turanganui-a-Kiwa personifies.
